Installing and compiling Hush for MS-Windows

Requirements

Hardware requirements:
Unknown. Hush has been tested on PC's with 486 intel processor and 8 MB Memory. Hard disk space needed might be somewhere around 1 MB, not including Tck/Tk or Win32s.
Software requirements:
MS-Windows 3.1 or better
Win32s if you have a non-32bit Windows version
Tcl/Tk version 7.5/4.1 (alpha at this moment)
Hush 2.0, including the MSWin extention
A C++ compiler which can generate 32 bit Windows programs. Borland C++ 4.5 has been tested and passed.
Where to get it:
The hardware is not available by ftp.
The MS-Windows software should be on your PC already, if not, why would you be interested in a MS-Windows version of Hush?
Tcl/Tk and Win32s are available by ftp: ftp.smli.com:/pub/tcl or ftp.aud.alcatel.com:/tcl/ftp.smli.com
Current versions are WIN41A2.EXE and WIN32S125.EXE. They might also be available at the place where you got Hush 2.0. Win32s is also shipped with Borland C++ 4.5.
Hush 2.0 is available at the site where you got this file.
You'll need to buy the C++ compiler.

I've experienced problems with the Borland IDE compiler. It didn't want to play with virtual destructors. The command line compiler (4.52) gave no trouble at all. I have not tested other compilers, any feed back would be apreciated.
