Then I'll consider the above for documentation, but not for usage in situations like my own where I don't have the slightest inclination to install make tools. I'll stick to places where I can find executable downloads for general recommendation. Though, as a side thought, there's likely to be a lot more make-tool-enabled Win users on this list than not. Since I only use Windows when forced and Linux works just fine... I'm just not compelled to mess with it any more than I absolutely have to.
