The source code is the same independent of operating system, so you
apparently don't mean "source code" when you say "non binary". What
would your expectations of a "non binary version for windows" be?

Ok i see it now, but this was my problem. I know that the source code (binary) is usually the same for all but I have never worked with source code for LilyPond so when I read this, "Documentation writers and testers will generally want to download the latest binary:" with 5 binaries listed below, Note, the colon should be a period; and make it look like it is not the header for a listing. I may not b the only dummy out there!.
Thank you, ƒg
