Hi Fritz,

very often you mention files (libraries etc.) and almost all the time, i can't
find them on my machine.

i wonder, if those files are for windows only.
or are they for harbour and not xharbour.
anyhow, what's the difference between harbour and xharbour

i feel somewhat uncomfortable not to understand the concept.

can anybody explain?

Harbour is using a more modular approach [than xhb],
where core is strictly portable and doesn't contain
stuff which could easily live as an independent project.
All this independent and/or non-portable stuff is living
in /contrib. We have more strict naming conventions too,
so most of them now have a different name.

So for example we don't deal with Windows registry in
code, rather we have a hbw32 lib implementing Windows
specific features.

We also have CT lib (named hbct), which is living in
contrib.

Since this is a Harbour list, we're using Harbour terms
and lib names. For best results I'd suggest to use the
Harbour codebase to find things easily :)

Brgds,
Viktor
