Actually, I am compiling w/ Visual Studio 2005.  I shorten it to .Net 
2005.  Is that misleading?  Wish I could use ming2 aka gnu c++ but I 
need the VS05 compiler to keep congruent w/ my fellows & it's got the 
best debugging env for windows right now.  Believe me, if I could switch 
I would!

Don't know who puts together the gtk/gtkmm installables for windows that 
I told you that I use from
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/gtkmm/

http://gladewin32.sourceforge.net/modules/wfdownloads/

But they seem to fit the bill for me.  However, I use them because I do 
not know how to compile Gtk/Gtkmm & ALL the goodies by had on Windows 
using VS05. & right now I'm into easy.  But any suggestions that leads 
me down a better path for development w/ GTK/GTKMM & all the goodies 
under windows is MUCH appreciated.  +  It must have a strong debugger on 
par w/ VS05.
