Not sure if it will help, as you will still need to figure out
how to<br>
get the FFTW libraries on there, and then gromacs would have
had to be<br>
(re)compiled so it knew where to locate them. Plus how to
define whether<br>
you wanted 32bit or 64bit and single vs. double precision. IMO
there are<br>
just way too many permutations to provide binaries for all of
them, even<br>
if it was statically linked to fftw.<br>
<br>
Anyway, there are no binaries for any other platforms to
download either<br>
(so it's not like it's a windows-specific observation).</blockquote>

For teaching purposes, it would be really great to have a line of
statically linked windows versions. Even if it the only default
executable per version, i.e. single-precision, 32-bit, so on....</blockquote>

Sure, but it's work to set up and maintain a database of relocatable
binaries, and it creates the expectation that it will be done for
more platforms... Someone who values it would have to take
responsibility for it :-)<br>
