Windows Development System

Since Z-Man is in the process of reinstalling his Windows box, he's taking the opportunity to write step-by-step installation instructions to turn a regular, boring Windows installation into a rocking Armagetron Advanced Development System. Obviouslty, this is still pretty much under construction.

CVS

CVS is the way we currently manage our source code. The easiest way to get CVS runing to use setup is TortoiseCVS and throw ssh for authentication on top of it. Install TortoiseCVS and memorize the directory it was installed to;

TODO: ssh (Putty perhaps), how-to-set-a-key

IDEs

You need only one:

Visual Studio 6.0

Not supported by us for much longer and not available for free. Avoid if you can.

Winlibs

We pack the libraries we depend on into one neat CVS module.

Where To Get
