QUICK Guide: Compile Crafty Chess Engine with gcc under Windows

[This is a short form of the longer file
"How_to_compile_crafty_19.x_under_Dev-Cpp.txt":]

Preparation steps:
------------------
(1) Goto http://www.bloodshed.net/dev/devcpp.html and
    - Download devcpp4980.exe from
            http://www.c-view.org/soft/devcpp/downloads/devcpp4980.exe
         or http://mapage.noos.fr/dev5/devcpp4980.exe
         or http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/dev-cpp/devcpp4980.exe
    - Download latest update (currently [13.12.2003] ver 4.9.8.5) from
            http://bloodshed.net/dev/devcpp4985.zip
      [this is a DELTA to above install, so you need both]
      
    - Install Dev-C++ to
        C:\Dev-Cpp\
      Note: This installation process consists of 2 steps:
        - First install devcpp4980.exe as usual.
        - Then copy the contents of devcpp4985.zip to the
          corresponding installation target directory and
          sub-directories.
          (This means some older files are overwritten)
      
(2) Download Crafty 19.6 from
          ftp://ftp.cis.uab.edu/pub/hyatt/v19/crafty-19.6.zip
    
(3) Extract the contents of crafty-19.6.zip to a working directory,
    for example to
       C:\c-files\crafty\

(3-b) Copy the contents of *this* zip file, i.e. the files
        - Makefile
        - Makefile_tiny
        - Makefile_org_crafty_1906_modified
        - Makefile_org_crafty_1906
        - Compile_Crafty_with_Dev-Cpp.bat
        - How_to_compile_crafty_19.x_under_Dev-Cpp.txt
        - How_to_compile_crafty_19.x_under_Dev-Cpp.html
        - Make_a_crafty.exe-very_quickly.txt
        - Make_a_crafty.exe-very_quickly.html
      to the same directory, e.g. to "C:\c-files\crafty\".
      This will overwrite the original file "Makefile" that was
      contained in crafty-19.6.zip. This is intended!
      (Note that the file "Makefile_org_crafty_1906" is an identical
      copy of this original makefile.)

Compilation:
------------
In your Crafty source code directory, simply double-click

    "Compile_Crafty_with_Dev-Cpp.bat".
   
--> This will compile and link the crafty source code and create an
    executable "crafty.exe".

    - FINISHED! -

Note: If Dev-C++ was installed to another directory than C:\Dev-Cpp\,
      then the "Compile_Crafty_with_Dev-Cpp.bat" must me modified
      accordingly.

Note: You should get 7 warnings altogether, and zero errors.
