It does support "Windows", though: http://code.google.com/p/ftk/ Phil, you could probably try building a MinGW version by adding CC="gcc-3 -mno-cygwin" CXX="gcc-3 -mno-cygwin" to the configure line, but how well it would interoperate with cygwin apps is not guaranteed. cheers, DaveK

True but that's not what the OP was trying to build. ftk also supports VS2008 express edition. But that's also off-topic for this list. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc. (508) 893-9779 - RFK Office 216 Dalton Rd. (508) 893-9889 - FAX Holliston, MA 01746
