I think that the first step is to get something that compiles and runs on Windows. Thereafter, asynchronous child processes will be an added bonus. In order to compile LyX 1.3.x using MinGW/MinSYS, one must first apply development/Win32/win32_kludge.diff. Should I begin by merging this into the tree? (I don't mean to add os_win32.h. Rather I'd add some nasty #ifdef _WIN32 stuff to the .C files.) If I find time, then I'll replace it with something cleaner. What do you think? -- Angus
