Much better in terms of installation. Especially the use of Unix tools for us MINGW folk. Once I rolled all of the includes and libs from z, jpg, ... into the GRX directories I had to tweak test's makefile.w32 because it wouldn't link the -ljpg ... stuff. I just used a path like the GRX20 variable and I was able to link and test.
I noticed that the GRX demo still has font problems on Windows. Sometimes the text is blanked for certain characters and it doesn't seem reproducible.
Thanks for the update!

I have uploaded this preview in the "more things" section of the GRX page.
preview 3 mainly included x86_64 support and corrections to pascal preview 4 includes various corrections to the win32 driver found on the list and the SDL driver of Dmitar Zemkov (rc4). makefile.sdl/makedefs.grx/configure have been cleaned up and include pascal support. The spirit is the same: an independent SDL compilation section for both win32 and X11 systems, distinguished by an "execution prefix" EP= or EP=x in makedefs.grx, or two targets sdlw and sdlx in the configure script. The library is named grx20S.a in both cases to enable to have both the SDL and the normal win32 or x11 driver in the same system. When finished, I realised that it would have been more consistent to include the sdl driver just as an other driver in the win32 and x11 systems. May be next time. I have to see if there are conflicts.
I would appreciate some feedback before creating the 2.4.7 official version. In particular I work on Linux only through either a vncserver/vncviewer combination or through a ssh (putty) / xterm (X-Win32) combination, from a distant PC running either win98se or winXP, never directly on the target linux machines (4 processors x86_64 machines which run Fedora Core 5 or 6).
