See -http://www.gnupg.org/docs-mls.html for a list of mailing lists. In -particular the list [email protected] might be useful to answer -questions - but please read the FAQ first. - -Installation instructions: --------------------------- - 1. Unpack the ZIP archive (alright, you already did this). - 2. Copy "gpg.exe" and "gpgv.exe" to some place where you - usually store your binaries. - 3. Create a directory "c:\gnupg" (or any other as you like) - 4. If you did not use the default directory "c:\gnupg", you - should enter a string with the directory into the Registry - under the key: - HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Software -> GNU -> GnuPG - (you probably need to create the keys GNU and GnuPG) and insert a - new string under the name "HomeDir" with the value of the default - directory you want to use. Please use forward slashes and not the - backslashes when setting filenames for GnuPG into the Registry. - 5. Enter "gpg" and see what happens - 6. Read the file README and the online HOWTOs - - -Internationalization support: ------------------------------ - 1. Decide where to store the translation files for your language. - Here we assume the directory "c:/gnu/locale/fr" - - 2. Set the directory with the translations into the Registry under - the key: - HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Control Panel -> Mingw32 -> NLS - (you probably need to create the keys Mingw32 and NLS) using a string - entry with the name "MoDir". - 3. Select which language to use and copy the currect translation file - under the name "gnupg.mo" into the directory set in step 2 - (Example: "copy fr.mo c:\gnu\locale\fr\gnupg.mo") - 4. Done. - -Currently we only support the Codepages 437, 850 und Latin1. If you have -problems, either delete the gnupg.mo file or don't set the environment -variable - - - -How to build it from the source: --------------------------------- -This version has been build with the Mingw32/CPD kit using the latest -stable version of GnuPG. - -First get the source: It has to be available at the same location you -found this binary package - if not you should have received a written -offer to get the source delivered to you See the file COPYING (section -3) for details. - -If you got this package from its canonical place (ftp.gnupg.org), the -source is available at: - - ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/gnupg/gnupg-1.2.n.tar.gz - -or for development snapshots - - ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/alpha/gnupg/gnupg-1.x.n.tar.gz - -this is the same source as for the Unix version. If your binary -version of GnuPG is called something like gnupg-w32-1.0.4-1.zip, you -should find a patch file named gnupg-w32-1.0.4-1.0.4-1.diff.gz at the -same location, which has to be applied to the stock gpg source file. -Instructions are at the top of this file. - -To build it, you need the MingW32/CPD kit, which is available at - - ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/people/werner/cpd/mingw32-cpd-0.3.0.tar.gz - ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/people/werner/cpd/gcc-core-2.95.2.tar.gz - ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/people/werner/cpd/binutils-2.9.1.tar.gz - -gcc and binutils are stock GNU source which are available -at every GNU mirror. - -After you have installed this environment you should be able to do this: - - $ scripts/autogen.sh --build-w32 - $ make - $ mingw32 strip g10/gpg.exe - $ cp g10/gpg.exe /some_windows_drive/ - -And everything hopefully works. - - -Don't forget that MS-Windows ist just a temporary workaround until -you can switch to a GNU system ;-) - -Be the source always with you. - - Werner - - - |
