[sword-devel] Cheatah on Windows!

[Daniel Blake]

Would anybody please post the list of needed software to compile the Sword
project.

The instructions on how to compile Sword would be nice too

Like Don I haven't compiled much of anything to speak of but I would like to
learn.

Thanks
Daniel Blake
