Linux and Mac support? #7

This looks like a great branch, but I’m disappointed I cannot get it to compile on Linux or Mac. The autogen and configure will execute, but no make.ini file gets generated, so I cannot proceed to the ‘make’ phase of the build.

Is there any chance of supporting builds for these platforms, or are there technical prerequisites for this branch that mean it will only ever work on Windows?

Hello,

Well ... Since I started the fork a few years ago and I'm a pure Windows user, many MacOS and Linux things and features have fallen by the wayside.

Since I have no idea about MacOS or Linux programming.

The portable MingW32 environment here with me is completely adapted. All I could do is upload the MingW32 environment and make it available.

Thanks, that would definitely be helpful.

I upload on the weekend.
