+Building on Windows
+-------------------
+
+* Any Visual Studio compiler should do fine
+* gengetopt: easiest is to install Cygwin and build your own version,
+  we just need the gengetopt.exe binary to generate the command line parser.
+  Alternatively you can build the *_cmdline.* files on Unix and copy them
+  to Windows:
+  
+    # open a Cygwin shell
+    ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/bin
+    make
+    make install
+
+* confuse:
+
+    # Download the ZIP version
+    # Open windows\msvs.net.sln
+    # Choose Debug/Release
+    # eventually convert the solutions
+    # build
+    # create layout with bin, lib, include
+    # copy dlls into bin, libs into lib, *.h into include
+    
+    
+* pthreads-win32: for pthread emulation on Windows
+
+    # open a Visual Studio Command line
+    nmake clean vc-inlined-debug
+
+* nanomsg:
+
+    # Install cmake for Windows
+    # open a Visual Studio Command line
+    C:\Program Files\CMake\bin\cmake.exe .
+    # Open nanomsg.sln
+    # Choose Debug/Release
+    # Build the solution
+    # create layout with bin, lib, include
+    # copy dlls into bin, libs into lib, *.h into include
+
+* json-c:
+
+    # Open and convert json-c.vcproj
+    copy config.h.win32 config.h
+    copy json_config.h.in json_config.h
+    # Choose Debug/Release
+    # eventually convert the solutions
+    # build
+        
+* biruda
+
+    # open a Visual Studio Command line
+    set PATH=%PATH%;c:\cygwin\bin
+    nmake /f NMakefile
