Windows can use a program called 'nmake' that you can use. In addition to this, you would need to install a C compiler. Microsoft does offer a free version of theirs. Both should be available somewhere on http://www.msdn.com. Alternatively, you could install the MinGW toolkit from http://www.mingw.org, it provides minimal GNU tools. > Becker E -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
