TRUE/FALSE would be simpler (similar to BOOL vs BOOLEAN, but different
since the latter are typed).

Curious: a lot of programs use glib to get around this kind of thing
(booleans, machine word-size differences, unified interfaces for things
like regular expressions, etc.). Have you guys considered it?

The BOOL vs BOOLEAN stuff is in an area where glib fails to help
(native Win32 ports).

The best idea IMO is to check for "bool".  If it's not there, typedef it.  If

in a native port, there's no autoconf - just a makefile.
Lynx has a few of those.
