This is phenomenally cool! >btw, if anyone is interested in the (rather small) build-script for >nant, just ask, I haven't seen anyone ask, so can I? I'd love to see the build script. Actually, beyond the script, what tool setup is needed? I have various bits of stuff (MS Visual C++ toolkit 2003, platform SDK, Visual Studio 8, VS .NET 2003). I found a few oddities, such as problems finding a usable msvcrt.lib (should it not have been using msvcr71.lib?) and issues generating pythonnt_rc.h. I sort-of got it working, and I was using a fairly old version of the sources (it was just a quick hack, to see if I could work out what I needed as a build script) but it would be nice to see the actual toolset listed out. A good place to put this information would be on the Python Wiki. I'll put something there if I can pull together the relevant information.
