Re: [Texmacs-dev] GNU Guile 3.0.0 released and some suggestions for future GNU TeXmacs

[Massimiliano Gubinelli]

If you have access to a Linux machine you can try this cross-development environment which can produce windows binaries:

https://mxe.cc

it could be an expedite way to build TeXmacs for windows (it has Qt4 and guile 1.8.8)

I'm trying to build a msvc-version of GNU TeXmacs on Windows 10.

GNU Guile 1.6.8 is a good idea. Several months ago, I am stucked on building a msvc-version of gmp.

I’ve just tried and TeXmacs runs fine with Guile 1.6.8 on my MacBook Air (Catilina).

I wonder what, from our point of view, is the substantial difference between 1.6 and 1.8. The advantage of 1.6 is that essentially requires no other library, while 1.8 has a host of dependencies (which however are standard, so not much of an issue on Linux).
