These are MINGW compile instructions for users without cygwin or self-hosting
mingw. If you've cygwin or self-hosting mingw, you can soon use standard
./configure process. You can also build WIN32 binaries under Linux using
cross-compiling mingw.

haven't noticed yet)
1) Get and install fully working MINGW system. See mingw home page
for closer details. Make sure your MINGW\BIN directory is in your PATH.

4) If you want to compile SDL/SGL targets, you also need to get SDL
Source Code and Win32 Binary Runtime (http://www.libsdl.org.)
Extract the runtime (sdl.dll) into the lib subdirectory of the SDL
Source Code. If you don't know what SDL means, you don't need this.
Look libsdl page for closer details how to get mingw working with sdl.

And hope for best. You will see lot of "warnings" but they're ok as long
as you manage to get working .EXE files.
Notes about mingw:
If you get weird compile errors, try getting
http://pws.prserv.net/thefortins/basetyps_h.tar.gz
and replacing your basetyps.h with it.
If you don't have WORKING DirectX libs with your mingw, you need
to get them.
(http://pws.prserv.net/thefortins/directx6_1-cyg.tar.gz)
Any later DX release (7.0, 8.0) is fine too.
If you don't get SDL library to build with mingw, don't worry, you're
not the only one. Just FLAME ON SDL dev. team, not us.
