Thank you for that. Interesting that I did not find a GTK_LFLAGS in the
Makefile.
For reference my Makefile.win is as follows

# Project: BoBReprint

    $(CC) -c main.c -o main.o $(CFLAGS)

support.o: support.c
    $(CC) -c support.c -o support.o $(CFLAGS)

and under CFLAGS I find "$(INCS)-m ms-bitfields" does this make sense? and
CFLAGS is not in the link at "$(CC) $(LINKOBJ) -o "BoBReprint.exe" $(LIBS)"
which I believe prooves that I have placed the "-m ms-bitfields" in the wrong
place in the IDE?
