Ensure that the command-line compiler and tools (including
nmake) are installed and ready to run. Depending on your
-installation there may be a batch file (named something like
-VCVARS32.BAT) that needs to be run to set correct environment

If you are using Cygwin or MinGW together with the MSYS environment, you
can build the library using configure (see "Unix ports" and
build wxWindows without configure using native makefile, but only with
MinGW. Using Cygwin together with Windows makefile is no longer supported.

You can customize many things in the build process, detailed description is
on your system and type run "autoconf" in the base
directory (or run the autogen.sh script in the same
directory, which just calls autoconf). Note that you usually don't
