Re: Request: Release binaries of xemacs for OpenNT

In theory, it should be a simple recompile to generate binaries on an

Nice theory. But this doesn't include dumping. Your best bet is to take the
cygwin version and see whether it compiles ok. I can almost guarantee that
dumping won't work. But the cygwin unexecw.c may be pretty close to what
you need since the executable file format must be almost identical.
I would like to request that you release binaries for this platform!
Its not going to happen unless someone who uses OpenNT puts the effort in.
I am happy to answer questions but I won't be doing any coding on this
score (because I don't have OpenNT). I suggest you subscribe to the
xemacs-nt mailing list and take it from there.
BTW - I haven't had much luck myself doing the compile, but I
haven't
really put much of any effort into it. I posted mail to the newsgroup
comp.emacs.xemacs to see if anyone had already successfully done this, but
haven't had much positive feedback.
Try doing the compile with cygwin s & m files.
