Building without linux-like shells #1

Closed ghost closed 8 years ago

Hey, can you please make it NASM-friendly? I dont like Mac-like and Linux-like shells.

Hello Luka, what build system would you prefer? Why not shell files? I chose them as they are supported natively in all environments that are suitable for building Ghost.

@maxdev1 , yea, but Windows is pretty harder for that. To compile my OS on Windows i was trying 7 hours, (yesterday and today), i must have Linux to compile any OS. How to do it without Linux?

The Problem is that you can not build Ghost without having a GCC cross compiler, and to build that compiler you need Cygwin. Once you have Cygwin, you automatically have a shell script interpreter and are able to run the build files of Ghost.
