$ cat README.W32
You may build the Win32 version of Aiksaurus with MSVC. Other compilers should
work but makefiles and project files have not been provided.
For command line junkies - simply
nmake -f Makefile.msc
For DevStudio - go to win/src directory and open up the Aiksaurus.dsw
Then build.
I tried. Did not work. The project file is also broken. I tried to
build the library using scons, and it was super easy (only 5 or so
source files) because its config.h is a subset of lyx config.h,
Now, what I can offer (already in my local branch) is that I can
provide scons options like aiksaurus_src_path (done) and
aspell_src_path (progressing) so that lyx/scons can build the
libraries just like gettext and boost. I am not sure if people will
welcome this. After all, it is *not* lyx's responsibility to build
them and keeping these parts up to date is difficult, although, on the
positive side, they can be useful, and can be safely ignored.
Cheers,
