Give me a link to an uptodate copy of the code and (more importantly) something I can use to compile it with?  I want to try a few things, and I'd be much obliged.  thanks

I thought anyone could access the cvs and grab the code...

Latest version, as of yesterday...

If you want to try some coding, that's a whole new matter.  You'd have to snag a copy of Visual Studio.  Sometimes colleges have that for loan - I don't know where else to find it easily.  For CVS, you can find instructions to set it up on the pages linked from here...

Ah... i can get the latest copy of Visual studio when I go back to uni, but IIRc it needs windows XP (which I'd rather not install), and there's also a waiting time to get the disks.

[Goober5000]

Yeah, 2000 or XP.  Which is why I use VS 6.  Nothing important has really been added since VS 5, anyway.

[Inquisitor]

I use VS6.

Someone was doing a GCC port, but the makefiles are a shambles right now.

[aldo_14]

I presume borland C builder won't cut it then

 Incidentally, that link (latestrlease.exe) doesn't seem to work for me.

[Goober5000]

Hmm.

Replace the EXE with ZIP.  It's a little older, but it should work fine.

[Goober5000]

Heh heh.  Right... the site is down because they're moving servers.  The links will work correctly again after the weekend.
