Microsoft Visual \Cpp, which uses COFF as the object file format.)
For this reason you have to convert Python's library
\file{python24.lib} into the Borland format. You can do this as
\file{python25.lib} into the Borland format. You can do this as
follows:
\begin{verbatim}
coff2omf python24.lib python24_bcpp.lib

\end{verbatim}
The \file{coff2omf} program comes with the Borland compiler. The file
\file{python24.lib} is in the \file{Libs} directory of your Python
\file{python25.lib} is in the \file{Libs} directory of your Python

The location of an installed \file{python25.dll} will depend on the
installation options and the version and language of Windows. In a

in the system directory.
Then you can create from these information an import library for gcc.
