| Subject: | something like an ActiveCaml? |
Hello, it would be nice to have OCaml available as stand-alone binary for windows. As I normally use Unix-like systems and it is easy to install OCaml there, but sometimes I have to use Windwos computers of other people, so then I can't easy install such big things like mingw and/or cygwin on that machines. But an aequivalent to ActivePerl but with OCaml instead of Perl would be fine. I used ActivePerl for those situations, where I want to do some programming of specialized tools on windows. I used ActivePerl then. This is OK and easy to install. But I would prefer to have OCaml instead of Perl, because ... ...well, you know why to prefer OCaml to Perl. ;-) Someone here who could provide such a thing? (I have no development tools for windows and no windows at all. I prefer to use Unix-like machines, but some people, who have no Unix or Linux installed, then must be annoyed with cygwin?!) Is there maybe a reason, why cygwin/mingw must be used and no stand-alone OCaml is available? Or could such a thing also be created? Would be fine. Any suggestions? Ciao, Oliver
