I've compiled the 2.9 revision, and I have a Tktable29.dll which seems to
work ok ... compiled with MingW32, and using stubs ...

<HINT> 
It took a little tinkering, as the Makefile had a:

	LIBS = gdi32.lib user32.lib

By changing this manually to:

	LIBS = -L/usr/local/mingw32/lib -lgdi32 -luser32
</HINT> 

The .dll file was created, and tests out pretty well in the short time
I've been toying with it.  I can make it available if someone would like
to put it up on a web site (ideally sf.net Jeff?) for download ... drop me
a line if you have a suitable web distribution point ...

Oh, and by suitable, AFAIR, tkTable has a license which is similar to
tcl/tk -- ie: BSD style.  If an attempt is made to gpl the binary or
otherwise encumber the binary, that would be an UNSUITABLE distro point
IMHO (eg: Active state bundles the Tktable28.dll -- but other licenses
apply).

Cheers,
Rob.
