Pan Newsreader for Win32 - Installer Build

This page contains a (hopefully recent, but unofficial) build of the Pan NNTP Newsreader (see http://pan.rebelbase.com) packaged in a simple windows installer. The installer includes the (stripped) build, the pcre3.dll file, the aspell.dll file, the language files and puts a shortcut on the desktop.

GTK+ runtime libraries must be installed already for Pan to work at the time of publishing, these could be downloaded here:

Latest installer:

Updated to 1st August 2008 release 0.133
pan-0.133-1.exe with i18n support, approx 1.9Mb (Release notes)

Notes:

Aspell support is built in, but is untested by me, and does not include any dictionaries. See http://aspell.net/win32/ for more details. If anyone gets this working, and can tell me what the installer needs to do to enhance the installation experience, please do let me know.

Comments and requests to : me or to the Pan mailing list. An alternative windows build by Artur Jachacy can be found here: http://panbuilds.googlepages.com/
