Fetch and install dmake somewhere on your path (follow the instructions
in the README.NOW file).
+There exists a minor coexistence problem with dmake and Borland C++
+compilers. Namely, if a distribution have C files named with a mixed
+case letters, they will be compiled into appropriate .obj-files named
+with all lowercase letters, and every time when dmake will be invoked
+to bring files up to date, it will try to recompile such files again.
+For example, Tk distribution have a lot of such files, resulting in
+multiple recompiling everytime dmake is invoked. To avoid this, you
+may use the script "sncfnmcs.pl" after successful build. It is
+available in the win32 subdirectory.
