Since that is a GNU-related project, as far as I know, it would be good to have especially good documentation on how to use it. I think such documentation should include any accessibility tips that may be relevant either in the development environment or in building resulting applications that are as accessible as possible for end-users on various platforms.

Greetings. A question: I need to work on some software that requires MinGW to emulate linux on my windows box. I honestly don't know why they distribute MinGW and MSYS separately since they appear to be interdependent. But I built MinGW first as I wasn't sure from the documentation which needed to come first. Both builds went off with no problems, but there are paths that need to be reset -- but the problem is that MSYS seems to put the root directory 2 levels down from MinGW and put /MinGW in its PATH variable. Anyway, to make a long story short, there are several ways I could proceed, all requiring altering files in either MinGW or MSYS. Does anyone else use this environment? How do you do the build? Slightly annoyed. Oh well. TIA for any suggestions. --le __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind
