yes i had used your doitall-3.4.2 and had installed from my build dir of /home/mingw/ to /usr/local/mingw as my target (never worked with a cross compiler before was just intereted to get it going
and I was working local without the wrapper you showed me (this so greatly ties it all together thank you SO SO Much,
I am snagging your package now will take me about 2 hours on dialup
but

I really let out a yell of joy last night when I finally got so I could cross compile and now with your new package and wrapper going to make it easier for many I know I plan to undo my manual install and just add your package. it gives me a standard directory structure to follow and such thanks so much, I got really bored last night and decided to uninstall apache and php and mysql and build them all from stable so having fun, I run my slackbox local being on dialup but its my baby, windows is so so boring staring at a screen clicking on a mouse puts me to sleep. and who wants to program in windows when working in linux is just so much easier and more relaxing.
just thank you for releasing the stuff you do, gives us all toys to play with
Robert
