Hello Lothar, What kind of environment do you build under ? I have succeeded only with mingw msys; I don't know whether you will succeed with anything else. Compiling was done in a kind of "getting this to work" frenzy, so I did modify plenty of things, changing off_t into unsigned long and stuff like that. Do you succeed in compiling ImageMagick on your machine with the current scripts ? Because that would be a kind of prerequisite.. and it is the hardest part. Once you get there, you need a msys compiled ruby version, you replace the calls to Magick-config with the actual output from that script in extconf.rb (ext/RMagick) and let ruby fly with that. Then make. This is the outline of what I have done, but you should really tell me something about your environment before I continue to elaborate. Also I will make a binary available shortly so we can try out if binary distribution is an option on this library. (Maybe it only works over here ?). best regards, kaspar - code philosopher - -- stolen off the net -- "...
