   1  This is the port of Midnight Commander for OS/2, Windows 95 and Windows NT.
   2
   3  This port is based on the port for Windows NT by
   4     Juan Grigera <grigera@isis.unlp.edu.ar>
   5 and the port for OS/2 by
   6     Alexander Dong <ado@software-ag.de>
   7 and is currently maintained by
   8     Pavel Roskin <pavel.roskin@ecsoft.co.uk>

  10  This port of the Midnight Commander is released under the GNU General
  11 Public License version 2.0 or any later version. See file COPYING for
  12 details.
  13
  14  Following compilers are supported:
  15     For Windows NT:
  16         Makefile.VC4:   Microsoft Visual C++ 4.0 and above
  17         Makefile.BC5:   Borland C++ 5.x
  18     For OS/2:
  19         Makefile.EMX:   EMX/GCC
  20         Makefile.BC2:   Borland C++ 2.x
  21         Makefile.IBM:   IBM CSet or Visual Age C++
  22
  23  You need GNU make in order to compile mc. Other implementation of
  24 make will not work! Run
  25
  26 gmake -f Makefile.xxx [RELEASE=1]
  27
  28 where gmake is name of GNU make and Makefile.xxx is the makefile for
  29 your compiler. You may want to add RELEASE=1 if you want to compile an
  30 optimized version without debug information.
  31  Please note, that not all compilers are equal. You may need to create
  32 dummy include files or change something in order to be able to compile
  33 mc. BUT PLEASE DON'T TRY TO INCORPORATE SUCH QUICK HACKS INTO THE
  34 MC DISTRIBUTION! Try to make your changes work with all other compilers.
  35  If you add a file, don't forget to add it into FILES statement of
  36 Makefile in this directory. Otherwise this file will not be copied to
  37 the distribution.
  38  This port is not very stable now. See files BUGS and TODO in this
  39 directory.
