Hi,

I have  been doing some dissector work here 
on linux using the development tree(autogen/make) approach,
and want to try out the source code on windows 
for my colleagues with MS visual c 5.0.

Have read a few mail and readmes, but if someone
can point me in the right direction on how much
I can "build" on the linux box before attempting
an nmake -f Makefile.nmake or whatever on the
MS box, that would be good.

There appear to be a lot of targets in the Makefile
and not sure what to use to make a windows source
tree thats compilable :-)

ie: My linux box has lex and bison and all that
good stuff, but the MS box only has the visual C
and gtk/wincap stuff. I have buit a stable release
ok, but nothing from the dev tree + my dissectors
on windows 

Cheers / Frank..
