| - | ===== MinGW ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | MinGW's installer can download a tool required in the next step. You should do this step. | ||
| - | \\ | ||
| - | MinGW also contains GCC which is used to compile the AC-sim simulator. Most people won't need this, and no it does not make a complete midibox on your PC, it is a console application designed for testing algorithms. \\ | ||
| - | If you're not sure, you probably don't need it, but installing it now will make the process a little easier. MSYS should always be installed AFTER MinGW (that's the next step in this document). If you skip the MinGW section now, and install MinGW later, you should also install MSYS again afterwards. | ||

| - | * When you are prompted to 'Choose Components': | ||
| - | * If you do not plan to use AC-Sim, un tick the box at the top labelled "MinGW Base Tools". This package won't hurt, but it's a big download (~50MB) | ||
| - | * Tick the box at the bottom labelled "MinGW make". This is required for the MSYS installation, to upgrade to the latest version of make. It's only 100k. | ||
| - | * Click 'Next', 'Next', 'Install'. | ||
| - | * Click 'Next', and 'Finish'. | ||

| - | //If the installer crashes while downloading just keep repeating the above until it completes. (this shouldn't happen, but just so you know, it will continue from where it left off)// | ||

| MSYS provides us with a POSIX (UNIX style) environment for our Windows PC. This packages includes tools such as make and sed and sh, which are required to correctly run gputils later on. I recommend the latest version, but v1.0.10 has tested OK. | MSYS provides us with a POSIX (UNIX style) environment for our Windows PC.
