Hi again !!
1. First of all thanks!
2. The problem is not editing the Makefile.nmake , but to create a new
Makefile.in from the Makefile.am . That procedure don't happening in
windows.
3. I read in README.win32 :
"However, if you have a Unix system handy, you can
first build
on Unix
to create the source files that these tools make,
then run
the build
on Windows. That will avoid the need for these
tools on your
Windows
computer. "
Can you explain ,what's exactly the meaning of "create the source
files"???
Thanks a lot
