This is the information you requested to be shown by "stunnel -version".
Hm, but that's not very useful. I am trying to setup EMACS/Mew/stunnel for Gmail access, and Mew tries to read stunnel's version from stdout.
Pipelining (connecting processes via stdin/stdout) seems to be very tricky on Windows.
Maybe Emacs can be fooled with a wrapper batch that outputs a version message if called with -version and calls stunnel else.
In fact, for a reason unclear to me, EMACS 23.1.1 hangs after executing certain ELISP code:
(call-process "stunnel" nil t nil "-version")
I suppose it is waiting for the started process to finish.
I see the dialog box and the main window, just as when I call stunnel from the windows command line. And of course I close these windows.
Closing the two windows does not shut down stunnel. You have to right-click on the stunnel icon in the system tray and select 'exit'.
HTH,
