Hi,

I haven't tried it since Dec 2012 (at that time, hoodle was available
on windows and then I do not have an available windows machine since
then). Main obstacle was installation of gtk2hs and poppler. Now I
have a concrete plan to make hoodle available on all the major
platforms, including windows. I hope that I can make windows installer
before the end of this year.

Thanks for your interest.
I keep it posted.

best,
Ian-Woo

Hi, I'm also very interested in a windows installer. And I have a windows machine for testing, so I can be a beta tester, if you need one.

Also, does your install plan include poppler? Will it be possible to highlight and note pdfs?

Thanks for your interest.
Up to now, I made some slow partial progress towards the goal
(installing hoodle on windows) by making some flags to turn off linux
specific codes.
I will keep you updated on the issue
https://github.com/wavewave/hoodle/issues/31

PDF annotation is definitely one of the best advantages of hoodle. by
default, poppler is included. On Windows, it's untested with poppler
though, since I was also unsuccessful to install poppler on Windows
when I tried some years ago.
