I have been working on getting everything compiling on Windows using
MinGW. So far, its working much better than my experiences with MSVC.
All of the externals in externals/build/src compile using MinGW (if you
have all the libs installed) while MSVC could only compile about half.
I have gotten Pd compiling using MinGW, but there are still some kinks
left in that process. Please give it a shot and let me know how it
works for you:

hi hans
it's a great contribution, for people who still use windows and pd (like me), and thus are more or less new to compiling these kind of stuff (like I am). for linux users, compiling stuff looks quite usual and obvious, but for windows users...
I don't have the time to check it now, but will surely try to follow your howto, so that you have a test from a total newbie. then I paradoxically think this kind of initiative can even help people switch to linux, as succeeding would make me more confident about my ability to switch to full OSS mess :)
thanks again +++++++++ clemos

Great, please give me feedback, hopefully while I am still working on
Windows.
