- Note: currently, the Windows binary does not search in the correct location for parameter files, you will have to move the contents of /xtrkcad/share to bin to run the program. This will not be necessary in the near future.
- With some minor changes to the GTK back-end (there are a few places where the code is X11-specific), GTK / Cairo could be used on Windows for high-quality rendering (which is why the XTRKCAD_USE_GTK and XTRKCAD_USE_GTK_CAIRO options are available on Windows).

- Specify the source and build directories in the CMake window. You must provide a build directory outside the source tree - I use "c:/build/xtrkcad".
- Press the "Configure" button to configure the build. You will be prompted for the type of build to generate. Choose your desired tool - I used "Visual Studio 7 .Net 2003". After a few moments you will see three options to configure: CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX, XTRKCAD_USE_GTK, and XTRKCAD_USE_GTK_CAIRO.
- Use CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to control where the software will be installed. The default "c:/Program Files/XTrkCAD" is a good choice.

=====Overview=====
The following instructions detail building XTrackCAD using CMake. CMake is a cross-platform build system, available at http://www.cmake.org, that can be used to generate builds for a variety of build tools ranging from "make" to Visual Studio and XCode. Using CMake you can build XTrackCAD on Windows, GNU/Linux, and Mac OSX using the build tool(s) of your choice.
=====Building XTrkCAD on GNU/Linux=====
=====Building XTrkCAD on Mac OSX=====
- You will need to install GTK2 and gtkhtml ... I recommend using http://www.macports.org to obtain these packages.
- Once the prerequisites are installed the build instructions are the same as for the GNU/Linux build, above.
=====Building XTrkCAD on Windows=====
=====Notes=====
- We need to make some minor changes on all platforms so that the share directory is set through configuration instead of hard-coded.
- With some minor changes to the GTK back-end (there are a few places where the code is X11-specific), GTK / Cairo could be used on Windows for high-quality rendering.

Deletions:
Note: as of this writing the CMake build works on GNU/Linux and MacOSX. With minor work it should be usable on Windows as-well.
Notes:
- We need to make some minor changes so that the share directory can be adjusted through configuration instead of hard-coded.
- Ideally, CMake should be used for the build on Windows, too. This shouldn't require very much work.
- With some minor changes to the GTK back-end (there are a few places where the code is X11-specific), GTK / Cairo can be used on Windows for high-quality rendering.
- To build XTrkCAD on OSX, you will need to install GTK+ ... I recommend using http://www.macports.org to obtain an up-to-date GTK.
