the build of the windows installer is the step to install icons in the
lyx.exe.
There's lots of info out there on how to go about doing that...
My new installer doesn't require you to add the icons, it uses the ico
file for shortcut and file icons. It's of course a good thing to include
these icons using a resource file. With Visual C++ that's an easy thing,
I don't know about MinGW.
There some opensource command line utility that does that AFAIR.
I'll try scons and see whether I can create a 1.5svn installer based on
Qt4 and VC++. Does someone have a few basic build instructions?
Excellent!
I suppose you have a proper mingw installation, right? And Aspell? If
not you can download my mingw package in the wiki.
Then
1) install latest scons (o.96.92),
2) adapt the attached bat file to your local path,
3) open a console in trunk/development/scons/ and type mingw_scons
Abdel.
scons CCFLAGS="-O3 -w" mode=release qt_dir=d:/program/Qt/4.1.3
extra_inc_path=d:/program/Aspell-0.60.4/include
extra_lib_path=d:/program/Aspell-0.60.4/lib fast_start=no nls=yes
