Re: Re: Windows port - native

Thanks for the info.

My first goal (after creating the port) was to have it somewhat 
integrated in the official aspell. I saw the features set-prefix and 
ENABLE_WIN32_RELOCATABLE were working in the past, but were forgotten 
afterwards and stopped working.

Starting a project based on aspell is less appealing for me. If I can 
contribute to enhance the official package, without necessarily starting 
another spin-off, I think this will be better for everyone.
