When I work on Windows (which admittedly isn't a lot lately) I *always* use the raw makefile system. > There also exists MSVC (Express) for everyone else, and finally one > could setup MSys or Cygwin, if he really wanted to, and use autotools. > Does someone know why the raw Makefiles should not be droped? I've never been able to compile Warzone using either MSYS or Cygwin. I admit I haven't tried very hard to get it working correctly. But then again I do *not* consider MSYS and Cygwin to be acceptable "native" tools, simply because they're not native (they're emulation layers for a POSIX system). Thus that leaves me with only one other option from that list ^^; MSVC, and "it shall be a cold day in hell before I use MSVC when an alternative is available.". Thus I prefer to keep the raw makefile buildsystem. -- Giel
