Yes, that was it!

I hoped compiling wxwindows would install missing libraries and I had problems 
compiling those.

At the end I grabbed png library from gnuwin32 and re-installed everything from
the scratch.

Now everything is fine although there was problem linking jpeg & tiff
libraries with FOX, so I ended up with just png support. (it took some time to
compile everything on my Celeron P566 and under MinGW & MSYS running on Win98
under Win4Lin :-)

At least, I'm happy to know that there is no bug in FreeRIDE code regards.

Sincerely,
Gour
