Hi L:ist!

After looking into the Readme.win32, some questions:

The file points out, that we are using Gtk/Glib version:

0.8.16 and after        20001226

I don't think this is true :-)


I'm not sure, if it's a good idea to put the installation/running information and the compiling/... information into one file README.win32. As it's somewhat common on unix system to compile a program before running for the first time, this is very uncommon on win32 systems.

A "common" user will download the setup.exe, the Winpcap driver and install both. He's usually not interested in how to compile the package.
I also think this is getting more and more common for unix systems, too.
