> WebHTTrack on Microsoft Windows Mobile 2003?> Has anyone tested this?
Well, first applications for Windows CE (aka Windows 
Mobile) have to be specifically compiled for this 
environment, and for a number of procesors (arm, mips..). 
Therefore Windows applications will NEVER work natively on 
these systems. 

Besides, even if there are some WIN32 functions available 
on CE, many standard functions (Ansi-C or POSIX) are just 
missing, and programs like HTTrack, not designed only for 
Windows but for all archs (including Linux, Unix, ..), will 
just NOT compile at all.

The current experimental HTTrack release can be compiled on 
CE 2003, using the celib compatibility layer, but the 
engine crashes for other reasons: very weird alignement 
behaviour from the compiler, limited stackframe size, and 
so on..

If you want to use HTTrack on an embedded system, the best 
choice is to buy a Linux-powered embedded machine: the 
compatibility should be near perfect.
Or wait for the upcoming x86-style embedded archs that are 
rising.
