I found a post on the Debian archives that indicates that apt-get will compile and run on Solaris, but I don't have Solaris so I can't vouch for it: http://lists.debian.org/deity/1999/12/msg00080.html Unfortunately, no amount of Googl'ing has turned up a port of apt-get for Windows. --- Lincoln Peters Arbitrary systems, pl.n.: Systems about which nothing general can be said, save "nothing general can be said."
