progress report mingw

[Marko Riedel]

Hi all,

I had another go at getting some gnustep examples to compile in the MinGW
environment. I used the excellent cookbook "Installation on Windows."

The ffcall library compiled once I applied Tom Koelman's patch. Thanks
Tom!

I installed the jpeg/tiff/png library following the instructions to the
letter; the configure script for gui still did not find them; I had to use
--with-jpeg/tiff-library and then configure found them and gui compiled.

The exact command is attached to this message.

I tried to start GFractal next. It could not find jpeg62.dll, so I looked
for it and added the directory to the path:
    /C/GNUdevelop/msys1.0/mingw/bin.
The examples launched after that, but they don't get very far. The three
that I tested raise an exception which is the same for all three. The
output is attached to this message.

Maybe someone can help me get this to work. I'd be very grateful.

Happy Easter everyone!

Best regards,

Marko Riedel
