PHP4b4/windows 95

Hello all, I use windows95/Xitami/MySQL/PHPb4 and PHP3.0.12 for local development. Some day I'll get Linux reinstalled on this machine, and this won't be an issue. I support several sites that use v3. And I want to make sure that my code will transport to v4, so I also have that installed locally only. My problem is that I have code using crypt(), gd1.3, etc. Where can I get the dlls for these? Is there a reason crypt() is not included in php itself? A reason it's only needed for windows (crypt isn't that difficult is it)? I have Visual Studio 97 (not installed at the moment). Can I get the code and compile these myself? Has anyone already done these? On another topic, when is the compiled bytecode thing supposed to happen? Is a beta available? On windows? Thanks for any help here, John -- /* SteeleSoft Consulting John Steele - Systems Analyst/Programmer * We also walk dogs... jsteele@engineer.com * http://www.gamecomputer.com/ssc/ */
