I would like to express strong appreciation of your efforts. I have read the INSTALL. Installation from sources --> MS-Windows ********************** Using the MinGW32 port of gcc: you need parts of the Micrsoft SDK for the moment. copy ..\config\makefile.mgw makefile Look through the Makefile to see if you need to make any changes. make make install Using the Cygwin port of gcc, which includes MinGW32: you need parts of the Microsoft SDK for the moment. copy ..\config\makefile.cyg makefile Look through the Makefile to see if you need to make any changes. make ****************************************** The Microsoft SDK is not necessarily required. Only the MS Help Workshop is required as the MS staff. In makefile.mgw, and makefile.cyg, make processes are respectively written as, # - compile the package: go to directory 'gnuplot' and therefrom run # make -C src -f ../config/makefile.mgw and, # - compile the package: go to directory 'gnuplot' and therefrom run # make -C src -f ../config/makefile.cyg ************************************** I propose that the part is simplified to *************************** Using the MinGW32 port of gcc, read instruction written in config/makefile.mgw.
