Sorry, I send it again in code block:

I thought that nimble installation command took care of all dependencies,
including DLLs and C headers file. So I got it wrong, and I understand that
there is something I have to complete manually.
If I dig on package directory I find
\.nimble\pkgs\zip-0.3.1\zip\private\libzip_all.c
Run
So at least .c file is there. Should I add the zlib.h file myself? In the same
folder? Where I should pick up the right one (I mean the appropriate version)?
If you have some "C library Nim's wrapper installation guide for dummies" to
point out, please do it, I don't want to bother community with too lame
questions. There is also another wrapper I would like to install, xlsxio, but
the documentation states:
`NOTE: You should have xlsxio_write and xlsxio_read installed in your system in
a way nim can infer their locations (either by path or cli switches). This
wrapper won't compile without them.`
And I need to understand what files I have to fetch and where to put them, to
complete C wrapper package installation after nimble install step. Thank you
