I would like to know are there any differences (other than compression types) between the unix platform source code package (.tar.bz2, tar.gz) and windows platform ones (.7z, .zip) ? Platform File unix boost_1_54_0.tar.bz2 boost_1_54_0.tar.gz windows boost_1_54_0.7z boost_1_54_0.zip

The code is identical in all the archives. Maybe only line-breaks differ.

That is correct. The contents of the files are the same. The .7z and .zip files have windows line endings (CRLF), and the .tar.gz and .tar.bz2 files have unix line endings (LF). -- Marshall Marshall Clow Idio Software mailto:mclow.lists@gmail.com A.D. 1517: Martin Luther nails his 95 Theses to the church door and is promptly moderated down to (-1, Flamebait). -- Yu Suzuki
