-XZ Utils on DOS
-===============
-
-Introduction
-
-    This document explains how to build XZ Utils for DOS using DJGPP.
-    The resulting binaries should run at least on various DOS versions
-    and under Windows 95/98/98SE/ME, although the Windows version of
-    XZ Utils is recommended under Windows 95 and later.
-
-    This is currently experimental and has got very little testing.
-
-    Note: Makefile and config.h are updated only now and then. This
-    means that especially if you checked out a development version,
-    building for DOS probably won't work without updating Makefile
-    and config.h first.
-
-
-Getting and Installing DJGPP
-
-    You may use <http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/zip-picker.html> to help
-    deciding what to download, but as of writing (2010-10-09) that may
-    not be the most convenient way taking into account what components
-    are actually required to build XZ Utils. However, using the
-    zip-picker can still be worth doing to get nice short summary of
-    installation instructions (they can be found from readme.1st too).
-
-    For a more manual method, first select a mirror from
-    <http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/getting.html>. You need
-    the following files:
-
-        unzip32.exe  (if you don't already have a LFN-capable unzipper)
-        beta/v2/djdev204.zip
-        v2gnu/bnu219b.zip
-        v2gnu/gcc444b.zip
-        v2gnu/mak3791b.zip
-        v2misc/csdpmi7b.zip
-
-    If newer versions are available, probably you should try them first.
-    Note that djdev203.zip is too old to build XZ Utils; you need at
-    least djdev204.zip. Also note that you want csdpmi7b.zip even if you
-    run under Windows or DOSEMU, because the XZ Utils Makefile will embed
-    cwsdstub.exe to the resulting binaries.
-
-    See the instructions in readme.1st found from djdev204.zip. Here's
-    a short summary, but you should still read readme.1st.
-
-        C:\> mkdir DJGPP
-        C:\> cd DJGPP
-        C:\DJGPP> c:\download\unzip32 c:\download\djdev204.zip
-        C:\DJGPP> c:\download\unzip32 c:\download\bnu219b.zip
-        C:\DJGPP> c:\download\unzip32 c:\download\gcc444b.zip
-        C:\DJGPP> c:\download\unzip32 c:\download\mak3791b.zip
-        C:\DJGPP> c:\download\unzip32 c:\download\csdpmi7b.zip
-
-        C:\DJGPP> set PATH=C:\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH%
-        C:\DJGPP> set DJGPP=C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV
-
-    You may want to add the last two lines into AUTOEXEC.BAT or have,
-    for example, DJGPP.BAT which you can run before using DJGPP.
-
-    Make sure you use completely upper case path in the DJGPP environment
-    variable. This is not required by DJGPP, but the XZ Utils Makefile is
-    a bit stupid and expects that everything in DJGPP environment variable
-    is uppercase.
-
-
-Building
-
-    You need to have an environment that supports long filenames (LFN).
-    Once you have built XZ Utils, the resulting binaries can be run
-    without long filename support.
-
-    Run "make" in this directory (the directory containing this README).
-    You should get xz.exe (and a bunch of temporary files). Other tools
-    are not built. Having e.g. xzdec.exe doesn't save much space compared
-    to xz.exe, because the DJGPP runtime makes the .exe quite big anyway.
-
-
-Bugs
-
-    xz doesn't necessarily work in Dosbox. It should work in DOSEMU.
-
-    Pressing Ctrl-c or Ctrl-Break won't remove the incomplete target file
-    when running under Windows XP Command Prompt (something goes wrong
-    with SIGINT handling). It works correctly under Windows 95/98/98SE/ME.
