hi there,

I develop on windows and deploy on linux. It would be great to have a binary that I could use on Windows 10. This looks similar to xml starlet(http://xmlstar.sourceforge.net/) and I'd love to use it for JSON formatting and querying.

Please consider developing binaries for Windows 10. 64 bit versions would be preferable, but 32 bit will do.

Thank you very much,

Hi,
yes, making/porting jtc for windows is one of the items in my list. I'll probably start working in that direction once I publish my next version update.

I saw the other Open Issue where someone suggested making JTC available through Homebrew.
I'd also suggest making the Windows Version available through Chocolatey and the Linux one through APT.

thanks Gameshack, yes, all those things are good and planned down the road, it's my availability is the only the issue. So, things are moving even slower than I myself would wanted to. But contributors are more than welcome too.

and the Linux one through APT.

Linux distributions usually package software themselves and upstreams tend to not being involved with that (albeit no one objects if they do!). So you might have more luck with finding a Debian packager interested in packaging jtc for Debian/Ubuntu. For RPM based distributions, you can start from the rpm available in Fedora and openSUSE (which are both maintained by me).

Please try to make this compile under Termux in Android and msys2 in windows. Trying to compile it on these platforms shows error about missing header execinfo.h.
