-General Comments
-----------------
-
-These are some hacks for making polipo work and install a package native
-to Windows.
-
-They need some work before they can be committed upstream:
- - Change the Makefile so it has a specific build such as "make
- dist-win32"
- - Configure the options for tor in polipo config, just leave them
- commented out for easy activation.
- - Work out better polipo config options for Tor.
-
-As always, I'm happy to accept patches.

-Pre-requisites for Windows
---------------------------
-
-Polipo for Win32 requires the mingw gnu regex library and dlls at
-http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=73286&release_id=140957
-
-You'll need to download the -bin and -dev tarballs. And extract them
-into your MinGW directory.
-
-Instructions for building polipo under mingw32 for Windows:
-1) Copy Makefile.mingw over Makefile.
-2) Run 'make'.
-
-You should have a polipo.exe in the current directory.
-
--------------------------------------------
-Creating an installation package in Windows
--------------------------------------------
-
-If you want to build an installer using the Nullsoft Installer, install
-the NSI Compiler. In Windows Explorer, navigate to the directory in
-which you placed polipo-mingw.nsi. Right click on polipo-mingw.nsi and
-choose Compile NSIS Script. You'll then create a polipo installer.
-
-The Polipo NSI installer assumes libgnurx-0.dll is in the same directory as polipo.exe.
-You'll need to copy libgnurx-0.dll into "./" in order to make the
-installation package.
