 Main goal is to make it a bit easier to use the MinGW64 compilers with C::B and to provide usefull tools and libraries from both me and Users.
 
+So if you ->
+A: Need to use tools and/or libraries that dont have a C::B workspace.
+B: Need to use posix capabilities.
+C: Need to use a shell for some script work.
+D: Need the MinGW64 compilers.
+
+Then this might be for you.
+
+if you ->
+A: Only use windows projects with a msvc or C::B workspace.
+B: Dont need posix capabilities.
+C: Dont use scripts/tools that use a posix shell.
+D: Dont use the MinGW64 compilers.
+
+Then use the normal distribution.
+
 Offcourse if you know how you can use any compiler with C::B For one theres allready
 a multilib version of MinGW64 with 32 bit support from TDM. 
 One problem with TDM's compiler that makes it a bit hard to use for people, is that compiling

+
+Offcourse if you know how you can use any compiler with C::B For one theres allready
+a multilib version of MinGW64 with 32 bit support from TDM. 
+One problem with TDM's compiler that makes it a bit hard to use for people, is that compiling
+for a 32 bit architecture requires special flags to the compiler which C::B doesnt support right out of the box. These are things like having to add -m32 to the linker flags, and windres needs a whole other set of flags. So i keept the two compilers seperate. 
+The advantage with that is that you dont need any special flags for compiling with either one
+besides what C::B allready supports. 
+
+As for autodetecting these two compilers which differs 
+from the standard MinGW by the name MinGW32 (for 32 bit compilation) and MinGW64 for 64 bit
+im trying to modify the autodetection routine to allow selecting either one if on a 64 bit host or the 32 bit one if on a 32 bit host. Its not quite there yet but MinGW64 will get detected correctly on a 64 bit host, and so will MinGW32 on a 32 bit host. 
+If you need MinGW32 on a 64 bit host you will still have to set it up by hand, but im working on it.
