Hello All,
I found the thread http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.printing.ghostscript.devel/3619 in which Chris Liddell <at> artifex.com says: "configure/make is for Unix-like systems, not for Windows." I hope that he did not mean to say that it is unreasonable to expect to be able to build Ghostscript by running configure/make in MSYS. If he meant to say that Ghostscript is set up for `configure' on POSIX systems and MSVC on Windows, I can accept that. The problem is that the documentation at http://www.ghostscript.com/doc/9.06/Make.htm#MSys/Mingw clearly states that "The configure build can be used to build Ghostscript on MSys/Mingw systems ...". If that is not the case then the paragraph concerning MSYS/MinGW should be corrected. Regards, John Brown.
