NOTE 1: Licenses for the individual packages can be found in the source or at the home sites for the code.

NOTE 2: I'm offering a US$200 bounty to bring all the packages in chicken-iup up to date. Details here

NOTE 3:: Feb 1, 2014. I'm trying to create a new version of chicken-iup. I'll update 2014_build_notes

Installation:

1. Install Mingw http://www.mingw.org to the default location C:\MinGW

• ffcall (nb// get from cvs)

Known issues

You may get this error on exiting your app: "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way." As far as I know the error is annoying but harmless and is related to having removed the LUA files from the build. It should be fixed in a future release.
