+BUILD file for HandBrake <http://handbrake.m0k.org/>
+
+Building HandBrake
+==================
+
+You can build HandBrake on BeOS, MacOS X, Linux, and on Windows using Cygwin.
+If you'd like to port it to another OS, email me (titer@m0k.org).
+
+Step 1: get needed tools
+========================
+
++ gcc and g++
+ There are usually included in your OS' dev tools. On BeOS/Zeta, the
+ default gcc isn't enough, gcc 2.95.3 is required.
++ jam
+ I use 2.5rc3, earlier versions might cause issues.
+ On BeOS, you can download it at <http://www.haiku-os.org/develop.php>.
+ On OS X, you cannot use the modified jam shipped with the developer
+ tools, use this one instead:
+ <http://download.m0k.org/handbrake/jam-2.5rc3-OSX.zip>.
+ On Cygwin, get the jam source from
+ http://public.perforce.com/public/jam/index.html,
+ compile it with gcc in Cygwin, and put the jam executable somewhere on
+ your path.
++ nasm (Only for x86. On Mac OS X Intel, Nasm CVS is required)
+
+Cygwin setup:
+ There are a couple extra things required to make the code build for Cygwin.
+ Make sure you have /bin and /usr/bin on your path *first*, before
+ the Windows paths. Otherwise the Cygwin find.exe won't be used, and
+ lame won't build.
+ Also, I have not tried to build this with MinGW, I've only built it with
+ the Cygwin environment, so you should build with Cygwin gcc and dev tools.
+ Unfortunately this means you need to have cygwin1.dll around to run the
+ HBTest.exe program, but that's the way it is for now, until I get time
+ to try building it with MinGW. If you want to try making it work with
+ MinGW, then go for it!
+
+
+Step 2: build
+=============
+
+Run `./configure && jam'. This will build every library HandBrake
+requires, then HandBrake itself.
