This is a package created by Hendricks266 containing a Windows batch file and a few command-line exe files to serve as a second step for the MinGW/MSYS installer. It is designed both specifically to meet EDuke32's compilation prerequisites as well as facilitate general MinGW usage.
The script does the following:
- Ensures that the following folders are in PATH so the compiler can be run from anywhere:
- C:\MinGW\bin
- C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin
- Checks that NASM is installed.
- Updates the MinGW-Get package list, then checks that all packages are installed and upgraded to the latest version.
- Ensures that no one has mistakenly copied "mingw32-make.exe" to "make.exe" in MinGW, replacing the more capable MSYS make.exe.
A log file is kept of all the script's actions. It is never overwritten, only supplemented.
See Building EDuke32 on Windows for details.
