Is there a Windows binary? #187

This app looks really intriguing and useful, however I am a Windows user.

Is it possible to release a Windows executable / binary file please? (e.g. FUDPES.exe)

Thanks!

I don't distribute any binaries, preferring to leave that to others. As fdupes is not designed with Windows in mind, compiling it to run on Windows could prove difficult. The Cygwin project has a fairly old version of fdupes available, but I haven't tried it myself.
