Re: [MiNT] Newbie trying to compile Mint v1.17

[WongCK <wongck68@yahoo.com>]

OMG... this is exactly what I am seeing now.
It cannot do that "\" thing.
I am indeed using Windoze/Cygwin.Aranym.

I am in a fix now because my CVS is on Windoze, which means big issues.
I always get the problem because that's how I move the souce code.

Any ideas on how to get the source code without the translation?
