-## 1. What is midipix, and how is it different?
-
-midipix is a development environment that lets you create programs
-for Windows using the standard C and POSIX APIs. No compromises made,
-no shortcuts taken.
-
-If you are interested in cross-platform programming that reclaims
-the notion of write once, compile everywhere; if you believe that the
-'standard' in the C Standard Library should not be a null signifier;
-and if you like cooking your code without #ifdef hell and low-level
-minutiae, then this page is for you.
-
-midipix makes cross-platform programming better, simpler and faster,
-specifically by bringing a modern, conforming C Runtime Library to the
-Windows platform. While the idea itself is not new, the approach taken
-in midipix to code portability is radically different from that found
-in other projects.

-### 2.1. Building, installing and using a midipix distribution
-
-A Midipix distribution consists of the following:
-* the native Midipix toolchain, consisting of perk, gcc, its dependencies,
- and binutils,
-* musl, a lightweight, fast, simple, and free libc[[1](https://www.musl-libc.org/faq.html)] used by Midipix,
-* 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
-* 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.
-
-Install the build-time dependencies listed in section [2.1.1](#211-build-time-dependencies),
-clone this repository (e.g. ``git clone https://dev.midipix.org/build/midipix_build``)
-and run the following command line:
-
-```shell
-./build.sh -a nt64 -b release -D zipdist -P -v
-```
-
-By default, the build will take place within ``${HOME}/midipix/nt64/release``
-and package archive files and/or Git repositores will be downloaded into
-``${HOME}/midipix/dlcache``. Consult sections [4.2](#42-build-variables) and
-[4.5](#45-package-variables) for the list of available build/package variables
-and how to override them.
-Parallelisation is enabled by the above command line for both packages that can
-be built independently of each other and ``make(1)`` via ``-j``, limited to the
-amount of logical processors on the build host divided by two (2).

-On successful completion of the build, a ZIP archive containing the Midipix
-distribution will be created inside ``${PREFIX}`` (see section [4.2](#42-build-variables).)
-Create a directory on the target machine and extract the contents of the distribution
-ZIP archive into it, run ``bash.bat``, and then ``/install.sh`` inside the resulting
-self-contained Midipix installation shell window.
-
-> N.B. The pathname of the target directory containing ``bash.bat`` and all other
-distribution files must not contain whitespaces.
-
-> N.B. The Midipix installer defaults to ``/dev/fs/c/midipix (C:\midipix)``. If left
-unchanged, the distribution ZIP archive must not be extracted into a directory of the

-Midipix presently provides, inter alia, strace-like functionality via
-ntctty's logging capabilities. This is available both through the regular
-``strace(1)`` command as distributed, which however **must** be provided
-with an absolute pathname without consideration for ``${PATH}``, as well
-as directly via ``ntctty.exe`` for a session by running ``ntctty.exe``
-with the ``--log-level 7`` option, e.g.:
-
-```shell
-$ #strace ls -la / # (incorrect, relative pathname)
-$ strace /bin/ls -la / # (correct, absolute pathname)
-$ ntctty.exe --log-level 7 -e /bin/ls -la /
-$ ntctty.exe --log-level=7 -e /bin/ls -la /
-$ ntctty.exe --log-level 7 -e /bin/sh -c "ls -la /"
-$ ntctty.exe --log-level=7 -e /bin/sh -c "ls -la /"
-```
-
-By default, ``ntctty.exe`` log files are written into the /var/log/ntctty
-directory; this may be adjusted with the ``--log-dir`` and/or
-``--log-file`` options. ``strace(1)`` logs to stderr by default.

+## 1. What is midipix, and how is it different?
+
+midipix is a development environment that lets you create programs
+for Windows using the standard C and POSIX APIs. No compromises made,
+no shortcuts taken.
+
+If you are interested in cross-platform programming that reclaims
+the notion of write once, compile everywhere; if you believe that the
+'standard' in the C Standard Library should not be a null signifier;
+and if you like cooking your code without #ifdef hell and low-level
+minutiae, then this page is for you.
+
+midipix makes cross-platform programming better, simpler and faster,
+specifically by bringing a modern, conforming C Runtime Library to the
+Windows platform. While the idea itself is not new, the approach taken
+in midipix to code portability is radically different from that found
+in other projects.

+### 2.1. Building, installing and using a midipix distribution
+
+A Midipix distribution consists of the following:
+* the native Midipix toolchain, consisting of perk, gcc, its dependencies,
+ and binutils,
+* musl, a lightweight, fast, simple, and free libc&lbrack;[1](https://www.musl-libc.org/faq.html)&rbrack; used by Midipix,
+* 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
+* 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.
+
+Install the build-time dependencies listed in section [2.1.1](#211-build-time-dependencies),
+clone this repository (e.g. ``git clone https://dev.midipix.org/build/midipix_build``)
+and run the following command line:
+
+```shell
+./build.sh -a nt64 -b release -D zipdist -P -v
+```
+
+By default, the build will take place within ``${HOME}/midipix/nt64/release``
+and package archive files and/or Git repositores will be downloaded into
+``${HOME}/midipix/dlcache``. Consult sections [4.2](#42-build-variables) and
+[4.5](#45-package-variables) for the list of available build/package variables
+and how to override them.
+Parallelisation is enabled by the above command line for both packages that can
+be built independently of each other and ``make(1)`` via ``-j``, limited to the
+amount of logical processors on the build host divided by two (2).

+Midipix presently provides, inter alia, strace-like functionality via
+ntctty's logging capabilities. This is available both through the regular
+``strace(1)`` command as distributed, which however **must** be provided
+with an absolute pathname without consideration for ``${PATH}``, as well
+as directly via ``ntctty.exe`` for a session by running ``ntctty.exe``
+with the ``--log-level 7`` option, e.g.:
+
+```shell
+$ #strace ls -la / # (incorrect, relative pathname)
+$ strace /bin/ls -la / # (correct, absolute pathname)
+$ ntctty.exe --log-level 7 -e /bin/ls -la /
+$ ntctty.exe --log-level=7 -e /bin/ls -la /
+$ ntctty.exe --log-level 7 -e /bin/sh -c "ls -la /"
+$ ntctty.exe --log-level=7 -e /bin/sh -c "ls -la /"
+```
+
+By default, ``ntctty.exe`` log files are written into the /var/log/ntctty
+directory; this may be adjusted with the ``--log-dir`` and/or
+``--log-file`` options. ``strace(1)`` logs to stderr by default.
