Hello Fred,

Could you add an option to the menus in all platform versions of IDE?:
Create 32-bit executable...
Create 64-bit executable...

This way we would only need to install one version of PB and compile for both cores.

Just install both version and use a project with 2 target to compile both exe automatically.

There needs to be a tutorial about this as it would be useful. The same goes for making Linux too, this may be possible on Windows 10 as you can run linux command line.

To compile Linux programs, the complete GCC compiler and all developer files must also be available.
These are not available under window. So it is not possible to call the Linux compiler from Windows.

Sorry,
But sometimes I have the impression that some people have little understanding of how different OS work.

Hmmm...

I don't know if it is enough to use the GCC compiler alone.
This includes all the libraries for gtk2, gtk3, webkit, and many more

I think it is more reliable to have a Linux installation on a VM.

Yes you need a lot of dependencies, gcc alone won't be enough.
