Building source code on windows is radically different than doing so on unix, so no. The only thing that might work is setting up a cygwin environment and seeing if it will build in that. BTW, if you want to get an easier introduction to using unix than switching to an actual linux/unix get a Mac. The command line is unix. -- Jim Nasby, Data Architect, Blue Treble Consulting, Austin TX Experts in Analytics, Data Architecture and PostgreSQL Data in Trouble?
