Dear Duncan, In your document "readme.packages.txt" you have a very helpful chapter on "Using Visual C++". Please allow me to ask you one question: Why do you propose the option "/MT" instead of option "/MD"? (To my knowledge usually option "/MD" is used when compiling programs with VC++.)
I didn't write that: I've got no experience with VC++. It was Brian Ripley who wrote it, and the log says he wrote it in 1999. So I'd guess that it isn't bad advice (having lasted 10 years without a change), but I guess it's possible that it is no longer optimal. Duncan Murdoch
