the 64 bit-version should be able to provide both formats, like in PellesC,
merely in the compiler options select the output-format

It would double the package size, because almost every file would need to be provided in a 32bit version as well. The only really shared file would be the IDE.

but the x64 user have only install one ide, not both, so its the same :wink:

it is very unlikely which does not instal, a 64 bits user the 32 bits version

Why not just let the two detect each other, and offer the other IDE in the menu?
"Compiler>Open x86 IDE" (in x64 IDE menu)
"Compiler>Open x64 IDE" (in x86 IDE menu)
alternatively place it under the File menu.
