Perhaps running cygwin under wine would help (if it is at all possible)? You'll probably need access to native Windows DLLs instead of the wine libs though. BTW, if you really want to write cross-platform apps, you may consider using Qt (not kde!) or wxWidgets. Just develop under FreeBSD as usual, and then compile against the Windows versions of the libraries (Beware: Qt requires $$$$ for the Windows version last time I checked), using Cygwin, Borland C++ or Microsoft Visual C++ (under Wine, if you prefer and if it is possible). Good luck! -cpghost. -- Cordula's Web. http://www.cordula.ws/
