+Compiling PCRE on non-Unix systems
+----------------------------------
+
+If you want to compile PCRE for a non-Unix system, note that it consists
+entirely of code written in Standard C, and so should compile successfully
+on any machine with a Standard C compiler and library, using normal compiling
+commands to do the following:
+
+(1) Copy or rename the file config.in as config.h, and change the macros that
+define HAVE_STRERROR and HAVE_MEMMOVE to define them as 1 rather than 0.
+Unfortunately, because of the way Unix autoconf works, the default setting has
+to be 0.
+
+(2) Copy or rename the file pcre.in as pcre.h, and change the macro definitions
+for PCRE_MAJOR, PCRE_MINOR, and PCRE_DATE near its start to the values set in
+configure.in.
+
+(3) Compile dftables.c as a stand-alone program, and then run it with
+the standard output sent to chartables.c. This generates a set of standard
+character tables.
+
+(4) Compile maketables.c, get.c, study.c and pcre.c and link them all
+together into an object library in whichever form your system keeps such
+libraries. This is the pcre library (chartables.c gets included by means of an
+#include directive).
+
+(5) Similarly, compile pcreposix.c and link it as the pcreposix library.
+
+(6) Compile the test program pcretest.c. This needs the functions in the
+pcre and pcreposix libraries when linking.
+
+(7) Run pcretest on the testinput files in the testdata directory, and check
+that the output matches the corresponding testoutput files. You must use the
+-i option when checking testinput2.
+
+If you have a system without "configure" but where you can use a Makefile, edit
+Makefile.in to create Makefile, substituting suitable values for the variables
+at the head of the file.
+
+Some help in building a Win32 DLL of PCRE in GnuWin32 environments was
+contributed by Paul.Sokolovsky@technologist.com. These environments are
+Mingw32 (http://www.xraylith.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32/) and
+CygWin  (http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/). Paul comments:
+
+  For CygWin, set CFLAGS=-mno-cygwin, and do 'make dll'. You'll get
+  pcre.dll (containing pcreposix also), libpcre.dll.a, and dynamically
+  linked pgrep and pcretest. If you have /bin/sh, run RunTest (three
+  main test go ok, locale not supported).
