R help - Nov 2004 - Off Topic: GSL installation for Windows

Hi R People!

Has anyone installed the Gnu Scientific Library on a Windows system, please?

I'm having a dreadful time with that.

Any advance would be much appreciated.

Sincerely,

See the ReadMe (which should be the first place to look) at

It's easy once you have gsl-1.5 built (the gnuwin32 project's version 
is too old), but getting gsl-1.5 built is not straightforward.
