MinGW - Minimalist GNU for Windows Files

The  packages within the MinGW/Base directory are supported by the MinGW
development team; they provide the core facilities required for a  basic
MinGW installation.

To  install  files distributed by MinGW we suggest you use the mingw-get
installer: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Installer

To set mingw-get up for first  time  use,  run  the  mingw-get-setup.exe
tool;  this  will install mingw-get for use as a command line tool, and,
at your option, as a GUI installer tool.  Once set up, you may then  use
it at any time, to install your choice of additional packages.
