1 INSTALL.win32 - how to install GNU Solfege 3.23.0 on MS Windows
*****************************************************************

Installing Solfege 3.23.0 on MS Windows is almost as simple as on
Debian GNU/Linux:

   * Download the file solfege-win32-3.23.0.exe from
     `http://www.solfege.org'.

   * Run the file by double-clicking on it.

   * Accept all default values, and the program is installed in a few
     seconds.

   * You can start the program from the Start Menu, select Programs/GNU
     Solfege.

1.1 Uninstall the program.
==========================

To uninstall the program, use the 'Add/remove program' utility in the
control panel.  Do not delete the files directly.

1.2 Trouble?
============

It is possible that the file `.solfegerc' is corrupted by a bug in the
program. If you have strange problems, you can try to delete the file
and rerun the program. The file is stored in `c:\Documents and
Settings\YourName'.

   If you still have problems, you should check if there is a newer
release available. And if so, test that release to see if the bug has
been fixed. If not, you can email you can email your questions to
<solfege-devel@lists.sourceforge.net>. Remember to tell what version of
Solfege you are running, what version of MS Windows, and the name of
the soundcard, if you know it. Do _not_ email the author of Solfege
directly, because when emailing the list, other people than me get the
chance to help.

1.3 Developers
==============

Solfege 3.23.0 and newer can be checked out and built from the git
repository after you have installed the dependencies.

1.3.1 Setup for running from source dir
---------------------------------------

Install mingw using the installer from
`http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw'.

   Install Python 2.7 from
`http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7.2/'

   Download
`http://osspack32.googlecode.com/files/pygi-aio-3.4.2rev10.7z' and
unzip to /C/mygi

   $ cp -a /C/mygi/py27 /C/Python27/Lib/site-packages/ $ cp -a
/C/mygi/gtk /C/Python27/Lib/site-packages/

1.4 Setup for creating the binary package
=========================================

While Python 2.7 is _NOT_ installed, run this:

   ` msiexec /a python-2.7.2msi TARGETDIR=C:\mypython27'

   After that, you can reinstall Python 2.7, if you want.

   Install a program that can unpack 7z files. Unpack
`http://osspack32.googlecode.com/files/pygi-aio-3.4.2rev10.7z' to
c:\mygi

   Checkout solfege with git into c:\solfege

1.5 Building and running from source dir
========================================

$ git clone http://git.solfege.org/solfege.git $ cd solfege $
./autogen.sh $ make

   Then you run the program by double-clicking `runsrcdir.bat'.

1.6 Creating the binary package
===============================

Build as in the previous section.

   $ ./makeinstaller.sh
