GNUMP3d on Windows
------------------

  GNUMP3d was originally a Unix application, being written and tested
 upon GNU/Linux.

  Since the project has started there have been those who've wanted to
 run it under Microsoft Windows platforms, without using anything like
 the Cygwin Unix emulation layer.

  Thanks to it's Perl nature the code should be very portable, and able
 to run under most platforms; the trickiest issue is installation.


Installation
------------

  Installing under Windows in 4 easy steps:


   1. Download and install a recent version of Perl from ActiveState.

   2. Unzip the gnump3d-2.x.zip file; and move the extracted directory
      to C:\gnump3d2 - preserving any existing configuration file you
      might have.

   3. Make any changes to c:\gnump3d2\etc\gnump3d.conf.win.

   4. Run c:\gnump3d2\bin\gnump3d-index.bat once.

   4. Run 'C:\gnump3d\bin\run.bat', editing the location of your MP3s
      if necessary, (the script assumes your music is in C:\MP3), and enjoy.
