I don't even want to look at their code. Building the 32-bit version was
trivial (copy win32\Makefile Makefile, copy win32\config.h config.h, nmake).
I haven't got a clue how to build a 64-bit version. Can you help with that?

OK, I did it (apparently). For the benefit of anyone else who might want to do it on a 32-bit machine, it didn't take much. Rex, please tell me if this sounds right.
1. copy win32\Makefile Makefile
2. copy win32\config.h config.h
3. Makefile: add /MACHINE:X64 to LINKFLAGS
4. run [path]\vcvarsall.bat x86_amd64
5. nmake
Number 4 above was the stinker. That vcvars stuff is not very well documented (at least I couldn't find it).

|Sorry, no. It's a bit less trivial; it took me about a day to modify

Hmmm! What I did wasn't too hard (see recent post and please comment). I got a
64-bit onig.lib, and my 4UTILS built OK and DUMPBIN shows its dependancy on
onig.dll. I have no way of testing whether it'll actually work. I finally
found docs on VCVARSALL.BAT and the "x86_amd64" option is correct (according to
MS) for host X86 and target x64.

That's all I want ... so I can build my plugins. One user downloaded my 4UTILS
for x64 and reported that it works ... loads, at least. I doubt he tested any
of the ONIG stuff but I suppose it'll be OK if it's using your DLL.
