Hi Werner, You have provided another hint. I was using make which is in \mingw\msys\1.0\bin. But you mentioned mingw32-make. This program is in \mingw\bin. I did not realize that mingw came with two versions of make! mingw32-make works much better. A few Error 127 messages still occurred

I have also seen the Command not found and Error 127 messages when trying to run make with mingw. Since the ver and type commands are built-in, I assumed something in the make script was running a shell other than cmd. On 7/7/2013 7:19 PM, Werner LEMBERG wrote: C:\ft2501\freetype-2.5.0.1make

I've tried to compile freetype 2.5.0.1 from source using mingw32-make (v2.8.3) on win7. My system was identyfied as windows w/gcc, so I went and manually replaced the contents of confic.mk with the contents of w32-mingw32.mk. What do you mean with `mingw32-make'? Are you actually using

Hi. What do you mean with `mingw32-make'? The mingw32-make.exe of mingw, which is located in mingw/bin. Are you actually using the mingw build system? Yes. Then simply say `./configure' within an msys terminal, followed by `make'. D'oh! I've been running mingw32-make.exe directly from cmd.
