1. Build Golded+ binaries using GNU C.

To compile GoldED+ and utilities you'll need:

 - GNU C/C++ at least 2.95.4, gcc 3.x.x are recommended
 - binutils: ar, ranlib, strip
 - GNU make, GNU sed and GNU grep
 - shell ans file utilities: cat, mkdir, echo, rm, [ AKA test (If it's is
   internal commands of your shell, then these utilities don't needs.)
 - (optional) GNU Groff - if you wants to make html or txt documentation
   instead man pages
 - vi, emacs, or any other editor you like
 - beer or bear on your choice ;-)

---- MINGW ONLY ----
Please consult this howto on installing MinGW over Cygwin:
http://www.xraylith.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32/mno-cygwin-howto.txt
--- gcc-2.95.3-5.tar.bz2 + mingw-runtime-1.3-2.tar.bz2 ---
Move /usr/include/mingw to /usr/local/include/mingw, take gcc-2.95.3-xxx.tar.gz
from www.mingw.org, copy .../lib/stdlibc++.a to /usr/local/lib/mingw, copy
.../include/g++-3 to /usr/local/include/mingw/g++-3.
------ COMMON ------

---- DJGPP ONLY ----
Visits to http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/ and download following packages: djdev,
bash, binutils, fileutils, gcc, gpp, grep, make, sed, Sh-utils, ntlfn, Groff.
Install these packages and run bash.
------ COMMON ------

First, edit GNUmakef.def for the preferrable compilation options.

---- DJGPP ONLY ----
When building in DJGPP environment you may wish to use liblocal which may be
found on DJGPP site (visits a http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/ and locate for
llocl02b.zip) or on Alexander S. Aganichev's personal page (direct link is
http://aaganichev.narod.ru/djgpp/llocl02b.zip). This library provides basic
locale support via country.sys driver. Otherwise just comment -llocal in
GNUmakef.def.
------ COMMON ------

Now go to golded3 and copy mygolded.__h to mygolded.h and adjust it for
yourself (put your name, FTN address and e-mail). Goto root again.

Exec 'make' (or `gmake' on BSD) and drink beer or play with bear until
compilation in progress. But better - help your wife (if you have one) or
wives (if you have more :)) with home work ;-)

ls bin/

You have to get ged{short-patform-name}, gn{short-patform-name}, and
rddt{short-patform-name}. If so, you did it!


2. Build Golded+/Win32 binaries using Microsoft Visual C.

To compile GoldED+ and utilities you'll need Visual Studio 6.0 with Service
Pack 5 or Visual Studio .NET.

First, propetly install a following Visual Studio's components:
- Visual C/C++ compiler;
- Nmake utility.

Next, copy golded3\mygolded.__h to golded3\mygolded.h and edit last to adjust
it for yourself (put your name, FTN address and e-mail).

Last, run following command:
nmake /f golded.mak CFG="Release"
and make some home work :) until compulation ends.

Locate following files in Release\bin sub-directory: gedwin.exe, gnwin.exe and rddtwin.exe.
If true - then you have Golded+/W32-MSVC :).


3. Build Golded+ distribution packages.

If you want to make binary package of Golded+ then you may call one of gp*.sh
shell scripts:
- dist-gps.sh to produce full sources package;
- dist-gpc.sh to produce config files package;
- dist-gpd.sh to produce dos binaries package;
- dist-gpv.sh to produce Win32 (MS Visual C) binaries package;
- dist-gpw.sh to produce Win32 (MINGW32) binaries package.
