This document only explains how to cross-compile Gray Matter on Linux to run on Windows. If you're interested in compiling and running it on Linux, click here. If you're interested in using a pre-built executable on Windows, click here.

Carry out the Prepare and Download and Cross-Compile steps on Linux and the Install and Run step on Windows.

Prepare

You need Subversion and MinGW. If you don't already have these tools, install them now:

On Gentoo

• To install Subversion, type: emerge subversion
• To install MinGW, follow these steps up to and including: crossdev mingw32 For the impatient, type:
• emerge -va sys-devel/crossdev
• echo 'PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/overlays/crossdev"' >> /etc/make.conf
• crossdev mingw32

On Ubuntu

• To install Subversion, type: sudo apt-get install subversion
• To install MinGW, type: sudo apt-get install mingw32

Download and Cross-Compile

Type:

• svn checkout http://gray-matter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ gray-matter/
• cd gray-matter/
• gmake -f WINmakefile

The Windows executable is now: bin/gray.exe

Install and Run

• On Windows, follow these steps. Of course, instead of the provided gray.exe, use the one you just compiled.
