the installMgr & ftp.

Yes, that does seem to be the issue -- more specifically it seems to be with the interface between the InstallMgr and Curl.  Initially the problem fell in that it wasn't detecting the curl/curl.h header correctly, since it wasn't including the proper Include location.  Once I fixed that problem (by manually adding -I/usr/include to the appropriate Makefiles), the issue fell with a problem with the std:: namespace, an issue that has cropped up in the past with other people all over the web... I just couldn't figure out how to make it work.  The problem has re-occurred at numerous times with gcc from 2.9x through 4.1.x -- each time the gcc people fix that iteration of the problem and claim that it's fixed, but the problem must be a deep-routed problem with the gcc/glibc interface.  I don't know what keeps it from cropping up in Linux, but I don't know all that much about compiler internals.  Maybe that helps someone?

Greg, I'm sure you're familiar with the work I have done with getting
wxMozilla to work with mingw, You'll need that at some point if you
want r-to-l support.

Yes, I just realized that late last night... wxHTML does not appear to have any support for r-tol support.  I tried compiling with your build of the wxMozilla for Windows but hadn't set up *something* properly the first time.  I think that I could get it running now, but you compiled against wxMozilla-0.5.4, which has poor Unicode support to begin with (a fault of Mozilla/Netscape's handling of the Unicode, not wxWidgets).  That has been fixed in wxMozilla-0.5.6, which now has an official release out.  That should also support building without wxGTK as well.  I'll try recomipling the wxMozilla interface with your Mozilla build and the wxMozilla-0.5.6 release sometime soon and see if I can work that into the program.  For now, though, it works with l-to-r languages.

Don't forget you are more than welcome to host your project on
http://source.emptycrate.com

Currently the program is hosted at http://wxsword.sourceforge.net and the SVN repository is the current one that I'm using.  But thanks for your offer!

God Bless,
Jason


Blessings,
Greg
