I hear that about time constraints ... working on a PhD full time and also
working in industry full time as well :)
Hmm ... I wonder if there is a way to get visual studio to generate a
build.xml
Take care,

That would be a good idea - I had hours of hair pulling when I first was
setting visual studio (expr. edn.) up!

Mingw you say, I like the sound of that and I'll have a go. One step at a
