You said I have to *compile* LyX on Windows. Of course I *install* LyX under Windows to test it. As I also said, it is my intention to release 'testing' versions which, presumably, will be installed by people on different systems. I'm hoping to get to this fairly soon. Problems that turn up that way will be fixed. I agree, of course, that it would be better if the person responsible for the Windows installer was a Windows user. But, at the moment, we don't have anyone who is (i) willing to take that on and (ii) willing to abide by decisions of the LyX team. Riki
