Well, it was never going to be easy! You might want to check out mingw.org but I thought GDB was supposed to Just Work these days. I did have some problems with it autodetecting cygwin ncurses, which obviously isn't going to work, but that can be fixed with --disable-readline ... probably. You can get readline to work with pdcurses, but that required a little effort. BTW, you just posted my email address, non-obfuscated, to number of web-archives. I'd rather you didn't do that. It would probably be best if you stopped your mailer doing that before you fully spam-enable everybody else. Andrew
