[Merkaartor] Compiling Merkaartor for Windows Mobile?

Compile Merkaartor for Windows Mobile, Yes. Easily, relatively...

You need a windows mobile development environment on Windows, AFAIK. I think
you can use the free version of Visual studio to develop for WM. Basically,
you will have to download/install the Windows Mobile SDK, compile Qt, then
you are ready.

I know about gegcc but never actually tried it. If someone succeed in
compiling Qt 4.4 with it, I guess it should work.

However, if you are interested, I will make a CAB available (just have to
figure how to easily/repetitively create a CAB ;-))

Be aware, though, that it's a work in progress. While all the
functionalities are there, there is much work to be done regarding the GUI,
which is, at the moment, usable but very far from optimal, memory and CPU
consumption (at least on my ageing HTC Prophet)
