No Windows build ?

Can you also make clink work on Windows ? Or at least document it is Linux-only ?

Looks like nothing in clink needs to be specific to one OS or another...

It’s not Linux-only. But you’re right that Windows isn’t supported. There was a previous issue about Windows support that enumerated everything I think this would require, https://github.com/Smattr/clink/issues/1#issuecomment-942931669. Happy to take patches towards this but I have no Windows machine on which to develop/test this.

Sorry, I don’t know what pane OS is.

It's the best autocorrect could do with my terrible input on the phone touch screen at a time when I was too tired.

Corrected now. I just meant "one OS or another..."

As an update to this prior list, as of 17f64a5e207d8154b3c734831662d4385c7bc468 items 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7 should be dealt with. For item 5, MSVC now supports C11, so presumably C11 threads would be a drop-in replacement here. However, they are not supported on macOS. Items 6 and 8 I have not investigated further.

Hello @Smattr, I would like to kindly inquire regarding the current status of Windows compatibility (e.g. if it is necessary to do something specific to be able to run it).

No progress update. Windows support is still lacking.
