liblouis-1.4.0.tar.gz builds both the library and the tools on Cygwin. The tools seem to work ok. I had to adjust the environment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH before the configure script in liblouisxml-1.7.0.tar.gz would run sucessfully. Make then compiled the library modules but was unable to link to either liblouis or libxml2 . I've received reports offlist of this problem, so I would appreciate suggestiont for a solution. It would be really great to get xml2brl running on Windows. That's where the most potential users are.
