Dear Federico,
> After extensive googling, I managed to compile the GSL libraries on
windows using Visual Studio 2010 with Brad Chapman's excellent guide.
Congratulation... Compiling on windows is a story of itself ...
Please can you post a link to the guide you mention above?
Unfortunately I have not access to the compiler (and currently not even
to a
windows machine) so I can only give you hints to success.
A first point: blanks separate arguments to commands in command line tools,
parantheses, brackets, braces have special meanings. So these can create
extra headache if you have them in the name of the pathes; for a first run
I would try to avoid them.
Further try to type the command that fails in the shell (using copy; if
you use the dos shell, set it to quick edit mode; it is still painfull, but
the pain is a little less)

Can you have a look,in these directories and look for the *.h files?
Are they there

Fine, but where did it put the include files? Is there a standard
directory? The unix makes files of GSL include a link command to the
include directory, executed at the beginning of the build. What has
happend to them in your build?

So this is the way to write it for gcc:
The flag -I is the way to specify a include directory (just to make
sure) -g is the debug flag
> cflags = "-g -I" + os.path.join(prefix, "include")
So I guess in your case it should be
cflags = "/I" + os.path.join(prefix, "gslhdrs", "Win32", "Debug")
Use some find tool and search for the .h files in the source directory...

Right. As stated above, try to find the directory of the header files.
Then it should work. Please come back if it does not.
Sincerely yours
