R help - Nov 2004 - Building MacOSX binary in Windows XP

Under Windows XP, I am able to build R package archived as source
(.tar.gz) and Windows binary (.zip). Can I create MaxOSX archive file
(.tgz) in Windows XP?

Thanks,
Tomas

If you mean a .tgz containing a binary MacOSX version of the package, not 
without a cross-compiler (which I very much doubt you have).

You can certainly create .tgz files, but the it's the contents that 
matter.
