Steps to compile standalone on win32 platforms with VC++. 1) either: (reccommended) download and install MGL for VC++. it is available from Scitech at http://www.scitechsoft.com IMPORTANT: make sure you add the mgl include and lib paths to VC++'s options in Tools->Options->Directories or: if you don't feel like downloading the latest version of the MGL, which is very highly reccommended, you can get the scitech directory from the q1source.zip file, rename the MGLLT.LIB file in it to MGLFX.LIB, and put the appropriate paths into VC++'s options, as above. 2) Build the gas2masm Debug program first. all the other targets depend on this one. 3) Build the other targets.
