Thanks, Allin. I will close the corresponding ticket on the tracker in a
minute.
Some more or less cosmetic remarks on the Windows download page:
- Aren't there some limitations with the Arm builds, and should they
perhaps be mentioned? The MPI thing is maybe only for experts, but I
thought that X13 and so on also are not for Arm? Or is that then simply
covered by emulation? (Only on Win11?)
- The top of the page says that Windows XP is required and SSE2. OK, so
the XP thing refers to the 32-bit build. But SSE2 is x64-only, if I
understand correctly, so now with the Arm build this is no longer
exactly true, or is it?
- The standard 64bit build is labeled with "Intel" processor, but in the
Windows world the AMD chips obviously have been very important (as
opposed to the Mac). What's meant is x64 here, I guess.
As I said, pretty much cosmetic.
cheers
