Bill Currie d8a37bc791 Correct the usage of gzFile.
Thanks to spirit for pointing that QF wasn't compiling with zlib 1.2.6
(archlinux, not yet in debian).

I was using gzFile as "gzFile *gzfile", but gzFile is already a pointer. In
older versions of zlib (including the 1.2.3 that's in debian), gzFile is
declared as a void *, and it seems that gcc is happy with assigning void **
to void *. However, in recent zlib, gzFile is now struct gzFile_s *, which
gcc is most definitely unhappy about assigning to struct gzFile **.

I just hope that either I had misread the type back when I wrote quakeio,
or that nobody is using such an ancient zlib.

This file gives instruction for compiling QF with cygwin to run in MS Windows(R).

==========================================================================

WARNING: This is not intended for inexperienced users, binaries are available on request.

         QuakeForge may take several hours from bootstrap to the completion
         of make install on some systems

To build win32(mingw) QuakeForge bins you will need to download and install cygwin, and the Microsoft DirectX SDK. Cygwin can be found at http://www.cygwin.org

Once cygwin is installed along with the appropriate developement modules, copy dinput.h from the DirectX SDK and place it in /usr/include/w32api/

If you want to use DirectSound also copy dsound.h to the same spot.

in the quakeforge source dir, within cygwin, type
./bootstrap
./configure --host=i386-mingw32 --build=i386-cygwin --target=i386-mingw32 --program-prefix= --with-static-plugins --disable-shared --disable-oss --disable-vorbis --disable-Werror --enable-optimize --enable-asmopt --disable-debug --enable-zlib
make
make install

--disable-Werror is needed as some versions of the DX SDK are buggy.

Go to the /usr/local/bin directory and copy the qw-* and nq-* files to your dos
quake dir

Let us know how it works for you.

NOTE: At the time of writing qw-server.exe was not working correctly. Please refrain from using it unless you are willing to fix it.

Special Note: QuakeForge supplies only our own version of the programs for Quake. To get the game data, you still need to have purchased Quake or get the shareware version from Id Software.
