Don't know enough about how these configurations work - but I guess you could at least make a mixed VisualC++ / ming distribution such that the install would already know everything except possible a path to the compilers. Or you could make a plugin mycompilerconfig.rb such that you could add Borland or Watcom plugins to the extend they are compatile. Cygwin would be different because it's not binary compatible. > > In any case, it is very useful to have the Visual C++ debugger. > gdb is also nice... On Windows? Without Cygwin? I've heard about the DDD debugger, but I've never tried it. Mikkel
