+ winbuild:
+ --------
+
+ This is a version of the apps/example/ostest, but configure to build natively
+ in the Windows CMD shell.
+
+ NOTES:
+
+ 1. The beginnings of a Windows native build are in place but still not full
+ usable as of this writing. The windows native build logic is currently
+ separate and must be started by:
+
+ make -f Makefile.win
+
+ This build:
+
+ - Uses all Windows style paths
+ - Uses primarily Windows batch commands from cmd.exe, with
+ - A few extensions from GNUWin32 (or MSYS is you prefer)
+
+ In this build, you cannot use a Cygwin or MSYS shell. Rather the build must
+ be performed in a Windows CMD shell. Here is a better shell than than the
+ standard issue, CMD shell: ConEmu which can be downloaded from:
+ http://code.google.com/p/conemu-maximus5/
+
+ Build Tools. The build still relies on some Unix-like commands. I use
+ the GNUWin32 tools that can be downloaded from http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/.
+ The MSYS tools are probably also a option but are likely lower performance
+ since they are based on Cygwin 1.3.
+
+ Host Compiler: I use the MingGW compiler which can be downloaded from
+ http://www.mingw.org/. If you are using GNUWin32, then it is recommended
+ the you not install the optional MSYS components as there may be conflicts.
