Of course the snapshot head releases (e.g. 1.1.4) still use msvcrt.dll, if
someone wants to give them a go; and within reason (I'm away from my
development computer several days a week) I'm willing to make available
MSVC 6 compiled cvs head builds [i.e. ones that use msvcrt.dll and not
msvc 7's CRTL]. If there is significant interest, I can look into
what's needed to build with MSVC5 + PSDK and set my nightly builds to
use that instead of MSVC 7. (MSVC6 is on my primary development computer,
hence not available for nightly building.)
On a similar, but unrelated note: AbiWord.exe is still available for
download by itself. Note currently it will crash if that's all that's
available, right before it normal DEBUGMSG indicates initializing
encoding manager message. [Not a bug report, just a heads up; bug report
or fix will show up when I get time.]
