Hello,
I have realised a variety of issues I should consider for creating a windows binary package, many don't occur on linux as you normally compile for your system and you have a common system lib directory. Put simply how should I link with liblouisxml, if done with dlls, where should I put all the liblouisxml dlls and other files? If I compile statically where should I locate the lbx_files? Probably having the bindings included in liblouisxml will simplify this as it will happen as part of the build for liblouisxml and so could be tied to that version. May be I should see how brltty does it, they use pyrex (which is very similar to cython).

Michel Such has made Windows binaries of the last few releases. So I'm
hoping he can do liblouisxml-2.1.0. It has a lot of new features, but no
change in API. I don't plan to change the APIs for either liblouis or
liblouisxml except possibly for the addition of new functions.

Hello,
I am about to produce a windows binary package of my python liblouisxml
bindings, but I will need a compiled version of liblouisxml. So is there
a precompiled version or will I have to make my own. Any tips for
building liblouisxml on windows?

Also any requests for which versions of python you would like these
bindings to be compiled for?
