I've just noticed, that there are INSTALL.* files which describe how
to use autotools, CMake and SCons along with Cygwin, MinGW and vs2005,
vs2008 and vs2010 (I'm only enumerating windows-specific compilers).
Are all of these supported? I'm only asking, because the
informations contained there are contradicting each other (for example,
there is a recommendation of vs2005 in INSTALL.scons, vs2008 or vs2010
in INSTALL.cmake and vs2010 only in INSTALL.Win32).
Someone should really clean these files and leave only the supported
and working combinations - after all, it is a first point of contact for
anyone wanting to do anything more than just using LyX.
OTOH, I'll probably just try vs2008 and CMake as you've suggested
(or maybe I'll pretend nothing has changed since beta4 and just re-add
the scripts with SCons support), but I don't know when yet.
Thank you for your help,
Michał
