The Evil library tried to port some convenient Unix functions to the Windows (XP or CE) platform. They are planned to be used in the Enlightenment Fundations Libaries (EFL). To get information on how to build that library and the EFL on Windows XP, see http://trac.enlightenment.org/e/wiki/EFLWindowsXP To get information on how to build that library and the EFL on on Windows CE, see http://trac.enlightenment.org/e/wiki/EFLWindowsCE To get the description of the API, behavior, etc.. run 'make doc' in the top level directory, then open in your favorite browser named Firefox the file index.html located in the subdirectory doc/html/. Enjoy !
