Hey, no excuses needed; you modified Jam for Mingw32, I'm looking for something different. Thanks to you for Mingw32.

One of the nice things about Jam is that you have the source code and = it is easy to modify, so anything you don't like about it, you can change=

This is my real problem: I can't rebuild on win95 with VC5.0.

Actually I can build jam0.exe, but when it runs to build jambase.c and jam.exe it usually locks my DOS box, and certainly does some strange things on the way. I guess there's some difference between win32 on 95 a= nd NT, when using the spawnvp() call to execute the actions, which causes th= e problem. I can build jam.exe manually, but it does the same sort of thin= g when it runs for real. The exe's seem to work OK until asked to execute some actions.
