+ Obtaining and installing a Midipix distribution
+ Last update: Sun, 24 Apr 2016 09:42:40 +0000
+
+A Midipix distribution consists of the following:
+a) the native Midipix toolchain, consisting of perk, gcc, its dependencies,
+ and binutils,
+b) musl, a lightweight, fast, simple, and free libc[1] used by Midipix,
+c) the Midipix runtime components that bridge the gap between the libc and the
+ executive subsystems of all Windows NT-derived Windows OS starting with and
+ including Windows XP, and
+d) a steadily increasing number of 3rd party open source packages, as expected in
+ any modern POSIX-compliant *nix environment, including GNU coreutils, shells,
+ libraries such as ncurses, libressl, as well as Perl and Python.
+
+Compressed Midipix distribution tarballs and, separately, source tarballs are,
+at present, produced every four (4) hours UTC after each successful build and
+subsequently signed. This process is fully automated by a portable Bourne shell
+script; all of the above mentioned components are cross-compiled.
+
+Thus, the most hassle-free way to get started with Midipix is to simply download
+the most recent distribution tarball and follow the instructions below. It is,
+however, recommended to anyone intending to use Midipix as a development platform
+to familiarise themselves with the build process. Other reasons to prefer building
+a Midipix distribution yourself include integrating new 3rd party software or local
+runtime component patches. At present, a full build from scratch takes about 30
+(thirty) minutes to finish on an 8-core host with eight simultaneous make jobs,
+minus the generation of the tarballs. The build script can be obtained from the
+following GitHub repository: <https://github.com/lalbornoz/midipix_build>.
+
+If you obtained a Midipix distribution tarball, extract it into a directory and
+drive of your choice, henceforth referred to as target directory; the drive can
+be a network drive. Do _not_ use anything but a true UNIX environment tar(1), as
+e.g. WinRAR or WinZip handle extracting hard links incorrectly.
+If you built Midipix yourself, the target directory is equivalent to the ${PREFIX}
+configured in build.vars, which defaults to ${HOME}/midipix.
+
+At present, providing an interactive Midipix environment still requires the Cygwin
+terminal emulator Mintty and a shell; this does not include pseudoterminals, which
+are entirely handled by Midipix. Both can be installed via the 64-bit Cygwin setup
+program at <https://www.cygwin.com/setup-x86_64.exe>.
+
+Once installed, launching a Midipix shell is accomplished by the `midipix.sh' shell
+script provided in the target directory from within a Cygwin shell prompt in Mintty
+and the target directory. This may either simply be done manually each time, or
+automated by a shortcut. As shortcuts cannot be distributed, it can be created by
+either:
+a) Opening (executing) the VBScript script in the target directory from within the
+ latter cscript.exe, providing the fully qualified pathname to Mintty, if it differs
+ from the default value of C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe or
+b) manually creating a shortcut to Mintty with `Start in:' set to the target directory
+ and the following command line:
+ [ ... ]\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico -e sh midipix.sh, or

+ Last update: Tue, 26 Apr 2016 10:16:16 +0000
+
+The following build status codes are defined:
+C -- Complete build w/ at least the default configuration,
+B -- Broken, e.g. doesn't work at all or only minimally,
+I -- Integrated (e.g. linked against) with other packages,
+E -- Extensively tested and confirmed to work by multiple sources, possibly via a testsuite,
+P -- Patches needed to build that haven't been committed upstream yet, and
+U -- Update to latest stable version or HEAD pending.
