This directory contains one or more zip files containing precompiled windows
32-bit binaries of SDL_basic, and for convenience a number of example .bas
files.

The basic.exe binary was built from the main linux tarball using the
Makefile.win32 makefile

This is a cross compile approach, building under linux using the
mingw32 package on a ubuntu 14.04 LTS system. The SDL binary files
were downloaded off of this page:

http://libsdl.org/download-1.2.php

The Mingw32 SDL-devel-1.2.15-mingw32.tar.gz file was used. That was extracted
and then installed with:

sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/cross-tools/i686-w64-mingw32
sudo make cross

After that, we go into the SDL_basic directory and just do

make -f Makefile.win32

The executable is basic, which can be renamed to basic.exe. The SDL.dll
file from /usr/local/cross-tools/i686-w64-mingw32/bin/SDL.dll is also
necessary, copy that alongside the basic.exe file on your windows machine.
