System/Environment Status Notes
FreeBSD OK Gambas 1.x and 2.x are part of the official FreeBSD ports.
OpenBSD Unknown Work in progress...
Mac OS X / PowerPC Bad Gambas should compile. Anyway, it will crash because of bugs in endianness management. I need an ssh access to a PowerPC computer to fix that!
NetBSD Unknown Work in progress...
Solaris Unknown Gambas now compiles on this system but may not work. I'm waiting for news from users.
Windows Bad The stable version of the Gambas interpreter and compiler compile on CygWin but not the components. Note that programs without GUI can work.

If you succeeded in compiling and/or running Gambas on your system, or if you have problems, write to the mailing-list. I will add any information I receive in the previous table.
