************************
Only for Win 95 / 98 / ME / NT / 2000 / XP

From 0.58 to 0.62 - Mame Windows (command line)

You need:

Info-ZIP UnZip/NT v5.41
unzip.exe
http://www.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/
Save it in c:\windows\command\ (95 / 98 / ME)
or in a new directory (for ex: c:\download) (NT / 2000 / XP)

MinGW:
mingw_for_mame.zip 5517 kb
I don't know where you can find this file now.
If you'll find it, save this file in c:\download ( 95 / 98 / ME / NT / 2000 / XP)

Now open a MS-DOS command.com (Prompt) window by Start/Run/command.com (95 / 98 / ME)
or by Start/Run/cmd.exe (NT / 2000 / XP) and type:
cd:\download and press Enter
then type:
unzip mingw_for_mame.zip -d c:\ and press Enter
Wait. If everything will be allright, you'll see: “1 archive were successfully processed.�
If you see: "Bad command or file name" be sure that unzip.exe is placed in c:\windows\command\ (95 / 98 / ME) or in c:\download (NT / 2000 / XP)

Now, you have to edit autoexec.bat (only 95 / 98 / ME)
type
cd c:\ and press Enter
then type
edit autoexec.bat
Search for a line like this (similiar):
PATH C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND
and replace it with:
PATH C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\MINGW\BIN
Save the file, close the MS-DOS command.com (Prompt) window and restart the PC to make the changes running.

If you have NT / 2000 / XP
type
cd c:\ and press Enter
then type
EDIT C:\MINGW\MINGW.BAT and press Enter
and in this new file type:
SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\MINGW\BIN
Save the file and close it, then close the MS-DOS command.com (Prompt) window

Now, you need Mame Source:
- version 0.62 [http://mamedev.org/releases/mame062s.zip]
- version 0.61 [http://mamedev.org/releases/mame061s.zip]
- version 0.60 [http://mamedev.org/releases/mame060s.zip]
- version 0.59 [http://mamedev.org/releases/mame059s.zip]
- version 0.58 [http://mamedev.org/releases/mame058s.zip]

Save the source in c:\download

If you have NT / 2000 / XP copy unzip.exe from c:\download to c:\mingw\mame

Now open again a MS-DOS command.com (Prompt) window and type:
cd:\download and press Enter
then type:
C:\MINGW\MINGW and press Enter (only NT / 2000 / XP )
then type:
unzip mame058s.zip -d c:\mingw\mame\ and press Enter (replace mame058s.zip with one of the other files if you need to compile a different release)
cd \mingw\mame and press Enter
unzip *.zip and press Enter.

Now, you can start compiling Mame:
type:
make and press Enter.
Wait (half hour at least....)
When done, type:
mame -createconfig and press Enter.

That's all ;-)
