The win32 binaries seem to have been working well for me for over a year.
The IDE is somewhat restricted -- not all commands seem to be implemented,
but there is enough there to do simple experimental builds and tests. The
libraries
are a great help!
My biggest problem is the semantics of the language(s). If something fails
in B,
A := B may not change the value of A. Also it takes a while to get used to
the idea
that true and fail may "be attached" to values and that they and not
values
such as 0
cause various branches of if and while and for to be taken.
