[Eighthfleet-development] Succesful Windows Port

[TIMOTHY K H. <tkh...@ve...>]

I've gotten 8th Fleet to run in Windows using Cygwin, so we will in fact be able to have a presentation demo on the big screen on Thursday.

A couple of issues:

NAN does not seem to be defined under windows.  We're going to need some sort of replacement for this value, currently, I've substituted -999, as it's a value that should hopefully never come up in the current situations.  However, it's is at best a temporary hack, and needs to be addressed.

Asteroids do not render properly.  There seems to be some sort of glitch in rendering the surfaces, so that some of them are occasionally "backwards", and you can see right through them.  It's wierd, I'm not sure how to fix it, as it's a standard GLU library call.  It's really not important, though.

Point is:  WINDOWS !
