Hi,

I want to compile notepad++. Here is what I did:

1. Get MinGW3.0:

http://prdownloads.sf.net/mingw/MinGW-3.0.0-1.exe?download

2. Install MinGW3.0

3. go to \4.02\source\PowerEditor\gcc where the makefile is located;

4. run make.

It does not seem to work. I have attached the output; can someone tell me what I'm missing?

Best
Idris
