Regarding the instructions here:

They are excellent, but the default folder name for MinGW should be C:\MinGW\bin, not C:\MinGW\Bin.

Thanks! Anyway, when using latest BLIde versions, you only have to install the apropiate MinGW package in your HD, and tell BLIde where it's installed. No need to modify your system variables or anything. BLIde users don't have to modify their system config or variables to use the IDE and the BlitzMax compiler. (you can tell BLIde where MinGW is in Tools / Configure the MinGW compiler).

If you need to use the system console to do anything, you can open the BLIde optimized console. This console (and not all your system) will have all the MinGW tools in its path, in case you need it.

JoshK: Excuse my ignorance, but since when is the windows OS case sensitive? (If that was your point...)

:D
