<h3>Compiling under windows with Mingw</h3>
<h4>Installing the tools.</h4>
  *  download [http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/|mingw-xx.exe] version 5.1.6 or later. Install it. I assume it will be installed in <strong>c:\MingW</strong>
  *  download [http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/|msys-xx.exe] version 1.0.10 or later. Install it. I assume it will be installed in <strong>c:\msys</strong>
  *  download [http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/zlib.htm|zlib] the binary and developer files. Extract to <strong>c:\MingW</strong>
  *  If you want <strong>https</strong> support download [http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/openssl.htm|openssl] the binary and developer files. Extract to <strong>c:\MingW</strong>
  *  download [http://www.fossil-scm.org/download.html|fossil] and copy fossil.exe to <strong>c:\MingW\bin</strong>

<h4>Getting fossil source code</h4>
  *  start msys. This will start a bash shell. 
  *  mkdir fossil; cd fossil
  *  clone fossil repository. e.g. fossil clone http://www.fossil-scm.org/ myclone.fossil
  *  mkdir src; cd src
  *  fossil  open ../myclone.fossil

<h4>Compiling fossil source code</h4>
  *  If you want <strong>https</strong> supports
     <ul><li>make -f Makefile.w32 FOSSIL_ENABLE_SSL=1 LIB="-lssl -lcrypto -lgdi32 -lmingwex -lz -lws2_32"</li> </ul>
  *  else do make -f Makefile.w32 

 
<h3>Compiling under linux for windows with Mingw</h3>
This is called cross compiling. I'm using [http://www.archlinux.org/|Arch linux] distribution which
uses the package manager pacman to install packages. If you have a differen linux distribution the packages might be called different. I assume a login name of renez substitute yours were apropiate.

<h4>Installing the tools.</h4>
  *  Install mingw32-gccs. With Arch linux you do Pacman -S mingw32-gcc (As root!). This will be installed in <strong>/usr/i486-mingw32</strong>
  *  download [http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/zlib.htm|zlib] the binary and developer files.
  *  If you want <strong>https</strong> support download [http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/openssl.htm|openssl] the binary and developer files.
  *  Extract to <strong>/usr/i486-mingw32</strong> by: su to root
  *  cd <strong>/usr/i486-mingw32</strong>
  *  unzip  ~renez/Downloads/zlib-1.2.3-bin.zip
  *  unzip  ~renez/Downloads/zlib-1.2.3-lib.zip
  *  unzip  ~renez/Downloads/openssl-0.9.8h-1-bin.zip
  *  unzip  ~renez/Downloads/openssl-0.9.8h-1-lib.zip
  *  exit root
  *  download [http://www.fossil-scm.org/download.html|fossil] for linux, and copy fossil to some where in your PATH directories maybe $HOME/bin.

<h4>Getting fossil source code</h4>
  *  cd ; mkdir fossil; cd fossil
  *  clone fossil repository. e.g. fossil clone http://www.fossil-scm.org/ myclone.fossil
  *  mkdir src; cd src
  *  fossil  open ../myclone.fossil

<h4>Compiling fossil source code</h4>
  *  If you want <strong>https</strong> supports
     <ul><li>make -f Makefile.w32 TCC="i486-mingw32-gcc -Os -Wall  -DFOSSIL_I18N=0  -L/usr/i486-mingw32/lib -I/usr/i486-mingw32/include -DFOSSIL_ENABLE_SSL=1" FOSSIL_ENABLE_SSL=1 LIB="-lssl -lcrypto -lgdi32 -lmingwex -lz -lws2_32"</li> </ul>
  *   else make -f Makefile.w32 TCC="i486-mingw32-gcc -Os -Wall  -DFOSSIL_I18N=0  -L/usr/i486-mingw32/lib -I/usr/i486-mingw32/include "

<h4>Distribution of cross compiled fossil.exe</h4>
Because you have linked against zlib and maybe ssl you need to include from <strong>/usr/i486-mingw32/bin</strong> zlib1.dll and, optional, libssl32.dll (and maybe also libeay32.dll)

<h4>testing the cross compiled fossil.exe</h4>
  *  copy fossil.exe and the dll's to a windows system. For testing purpose all in one directory. For production use a directory in your PATH
  *  fossil clone http://www.fossil-scm.org/ http.fossil
  *  If it has <strong>https</strong> support then fossil clone https://www.fossil-scm.org/ https.fossil
