+Builds natively with MSVC 2.x or MSVC 4.x compilers.

+To build with nmake on Windows NT or Windows 95:
+
+ 1. Make sure cl.exe is in your %Path%. Example:
+
+ set Path=%Path%;c:/msdev/bin
+
+ 2. Make sure %include% is set to msvc include directory. Example:
+
+ set include=c:/msdev/include
+
+ 3. Make sure %lib% is set to msvc lib directory. Example:
+
+ set lib=c:/msdev/lib
+
+ 4. nmake /f NMakefile
+
+
+There is a bat file (build_w32.bat) for folks who have fear of nmake.
+
+Outputs:
+
+ WinDebug/make.exe
+ WinRel/make.exe
+
+Notes:
+
+ This port prefers you have a working sh.exe somewhere on your
+ system. If you don't have sh.exe, port falls back to
+ MSDOS mode for launching programs (via a batch file).
+ The MSDOS mode style execution has not been tested too
+ carefully though (I use GNU bash as sh.exe).
+
+ I verified all functionality with a slightly modified version
+ of make-test-0.4.5 (modifications to get test suite to run
+ on Windows NT). All tests pass in an environment that includes
+ sh.exe.
+
+ I did not provide a Visual C project file with this port as
+ the project file would not be considered freely distributable
+ (or so I think). It is easy enough to create one though if
+ you know how to use Visual C.
+
+ I build the program statically to avoid problems locating DLL's
+ on machines that may not have MSVC runtime installed. If you
+ prefer, you can change make to build with shared libraries by
+ changing /MT to /MD in the NMakefile (or build_w32.bat).
