+=============
+
+Here is a quick outline of one way you can build FG for Win32 using a
+completely free development environment.
+
+1.  Setup your development environment.  The main Cygnus Gnu-Win32
+    page is at: 
+
+        http://www.cygnus.com/misc/gnu-win32/
+
+    Download and install the Cygnus Gnu-Win32 compiler:
+
+        ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/gnu-win32/latest/cdk.exe
+
+    Be sure to read this package's README for post installation
+    configuration instructions:
+
+        http://www.cygnus.com/misc/gnu-win32/readme_toc.html
+
+
+2.  Fetch the Flight Gear prototype code.  It can be found at:
+
+        http://www.menet.umn.edu/~curt/fgfs/prototype/source/
+
+    Grab the latest .zip file.
+
+
+3.  Unpack the FG prototype code.  Run:
+
+        pkunzip -d <file>.zip
+
+    Be sure to use the -d option.  This will create all the needed
+    subdirectories.  Otherwise you will have one big mess!
+
+    You should now have directory called ``FlightGear'' with several
+    subdirectories.
+
+
+3.  Install the OpenGL/GLUT headers.  Cd to ``FlightGear\Src\Win32''.
+    There you will find a file called gl-hdrs.zip.  Assuming you
+    installed the free Cygnus compiler in C:\gnuwin32\b18,, copy the
+    file ``gl-hdrs.zip'' to ``c:\gnuwin32\b18\include\":
+
+        copy gl-hdrs.zip c:\gnuwin32\b18\include\
+
+    Then go to the c:\gnuwin32\b18\include\ directory and run:
+
+        pkunzip -d gl-hdrs.zip
+
+    You can remove the gl-hdrs.zip file if you wish.
+
+
+4.  Install the OpenGL dynamic link libraries.  If you are running
+    an NT system you can skip this step.  NT comes with the OpenGL
+    libraries.  If you are running windows 95, you should grab the
+    OpenGL libraries from the Microsoft ftp server:
+
+        ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/Softlib/MSLFILES/Opengl95.exe
+
+    This is a self extracting compressed archive, so run this .exe to
+    extract the files.  To install these permanently on your system,
+    you can copy them to your ``c:\windows\system\" directory.
+    Otherwise, you could just as easily copy them to the
+    ``FlightGear\Src\OpenGL'' directory or someplace that is in your
+    path.
+
+4.  Edit the ``make.inc'' file.  Go back to the main FlightGear source
+    directory.  From where ever you extracted the FG code, cd to
+    ``FlightGear\Src''.  Edit the file called ``make.inc''.  Find the
+    part of the file that says:  ``Uncomment one of the following
+    sections depending on your system'' 
+
+    Uncomment all the makefile defines in the ``Cygnus Win32''
+    section.  Also, you should comment out any of the defines in the
+    other sections.
+
+
+5.  Build the executable.  From the same ``FlightGear\Src'' directory,
+    run the following command:
+
+        make
+
+    make is a build utility that comes with the Cygnus development
+    environment.
+
+    You will see a few warning messages from the compiler, but none of
+    these are serious.  
+
+
+6.  Try it out!  cd to the FlightGear\Src\OpenGL directory and run the
+    simulator:
+
+        fg0
+
+
+7.  I wrote this document from the top of my head so it is certain to
+    contain errors.   Please send me email (curt@me.umn.edu) and let
+    me know what changes need to be made to this document and these
+    procedures to make them easier to understand and follow.
