Are there binaries available for sqlcmd/win?

Hi,

I got fed up with the limitations of dbaccess and started searching
for an alternative. There seems to be two viable ones: sqlcmd and
sqsl.

The download options seem to require that you build the packages your
self from the source code.

Are there any ready made binaries available for Windows? I'm running
Informix 9.4 on Win2000.

Thanks,

sqsl is currently only implemented on posix platform due to the need to use
fork() to implement the CLONE construct. Moving to threads I should probably
have a look at MKS, but time is limited...
Also, though I technically can distribute binaries, I'd rather not in order to
stay away from any licensing issues.
As far as standalone win32 compatible dbaccess replacements, I believe you can
find one at www.aubit.com - not too sure what it offers above and beyond
dbaccess though (sorry, Mike!)
