-This directory contains various scripts and code to build binaries installers for
-windows.
-
-It can:
-        - prepare a bootstrap environment to build binary in a self-contained
-          directory
-        - build binaries for different architectures using different site.cfg
-        - prepare a nsis-based installer which automatically detects the arch
-          on the computer where numpy is installed.
-
-Example:
-========
-
-python doall.py
-
-Should build the numpy 'super' installer for sse2, sse3 and nosse from scratch.
-You have to run it in the win32build directory.
-
-Dependencies:
-=============
-
-You need the following to use those scripts:
-        - python and mingw tools (gcc, make, g77 at least).
-        - the binaries for atlas/blas/lapack for the various archs supported
-          (see vendor in numpy repository root for tools to build those).
-        - python, nsis and subversion command line tools should be in your
-          PATH, e.g. running python, makensis and svn should work in a DOS
-          cmd.exe.
-        - the CpuCaps nsis plugin (see below on how to build it).
-
-Components:
-===========
-
-cpuid
------
-
-cpuid: contains a mini C lib to detect SSE variants (SSE 1, 2 and 3 for now).
-It relies on gcc ASM, but porting it to VS should be trivial (only a few lines
-os ASM).
-
-cpucaps:
---------
-
-cpucaps: nsis plugin to add the ability to detect SSE for installers, uses
-cpuid. To build it, you have two options:
-        - build it manually: build the CpuCaps.dll with sources cpucaps.c and
-          cpuid.c in cpuid directory.
-        - with scons: if you have scons, just do scons install. It will build
-          and put the CpuCaps.dll  in the plugins directory of nsis (if you
-          install nsis in the default path).
-        - run build-cpucaps.py with a windows python, e.g.
-          wine "C:\Python27\python" build-cpucaps.py
-
-build.py:
----------
-
-Can build the binaries for each variant of arch in a bootstrap environment
-
-prepare_bootstrap.py
---------------------
-
-Script to prepare a bootstrap environment. A bootstrap environment depends on
-the python version (2.5, 2.4, etc...).
-
-It works by building a source distribution, unzipping it in a bootrap
-directory, and putting everything (build.py, nsis script, etc...) in it.
