Re: Emacs build on Windows: Prerequisites

[dhruva]

Hi,
Thank you all for the inputs. I agree it is much simpler to download
some extra tools and get the build going.

The following are some of the packages I downloaded to get the whole
thing going:

For building Emacs on Windows (release/pretest versions):
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/coreutils.htm
To build the info files (from CVS):
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/texinfo.htm

Tools needed by Emacs (optional to get a full blown setup):
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/diffutils.htm
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/tar.htm
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/sed.htm
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gzip.htm
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/grep.htm

with best regards,
dhruva
