Hi all,

I wasn't able to find a recent Win32 build for PCB, so I compiled my own.
Hopefully some of you will also find it useful.

Sorry if this isn't the right list for PCB. Please forward to any interested parties,
and let me know if you have any problems using the installer.

Thanks,
Paul


There are some issues with this MinGW build of PCB:

* When running pcb.exe, it complains it can't find libpng13.dll. I renamed the provided libpng-3.dll to libpng13.dll

* Then there are libz.dll and zlib1.dll that are missing. I borrowed them from a zlib1.dll I found on my system.

* As pcb starts, it complains it can't open the ListLibraryContents.sh file. I ignored it, pressing the Cancel button.

* If I simply type 'pcb' in a command prompt window, it can't find the fonts and libraries.

* I could open the example files (LED and LED2) and place new components from the library, which is good.

* However, all the square pins/pads are missing. Only the holes remain. They do appear on the Postscript export, however.

* The issues above are not present on a pure Cygwin build.

Regards,
Cesar
