Hello Rene

One can find a "Makefile" for Microsoft Nmake along with
hsimple.c.

Did you try to go to the root/test subdirectory and just type:

c:\root\test>NMAKE -f makefile.win

Doesn't it work for you ?

With my best regards,
Valery

PS. I've tried it myself and found the last version of Makefile for
Windows has a bug:

The lines:

$(VVECTOR): $(VVECTORO)
$(LD) $(LDFLAGS) $(VVECTORO) $(LIBS) $(OutPutOpt) $(VVECTOR)
@echo "$(VVECTOR) done"

$(VMATRIX): $(VMATRIXO)
$(LD) $(LDFLAGS) $(VMATRIXO) $(LIBS) $(OutPutOpt) $(VMATRIX)
@echo "$(VMATRIX) done"

$(VLAZY): $(VLAZYO)
$(LD) $(LDFLAGS) $(VLAZYO) $(LIBS) $(OutPutOpt) $(VLAZY)
@echo "$(VLAZY) done"

must be

$(VVECTOR): $(VVECTORO)
$(LD) $(LDFLAGS) $(VVECTORO) $(LIBS) $(OutPutOpt)$(VVECTOR)
@echo "$(VVECTOR) done"

$(VMATRIX): $(VMATRIXO)
$(LD) $(LDFLAGS) $(VMATRIXO) $(LIBS) $(OutPutOpt)$(VMATRIX)
@echo "$(VMATRIX) done"

$(VLAZY): $(VLAZYO)
$(LD) $(LDFLAGS) $(VLAZYO) $(LIBS) $(OutPutOpt)$(VLAZY)
@echo "$(VLAZY) done"

The only problem is the EXTRA BLANK
between $(OutPutOpt) and the package name like $(VLAZY) and VMATRIX example
can not be compiled due some bugs

Sp to succed just remove VMATRIX, namely delete $(VMATRIX) from the line below

PROGRAMS = $(EVENT) $(HWORLD) $(HSIMPLE) $(MINEXAM) $(TSTRING) \
$(TCOLLEX) $(VVECTOR) $(VMATRIX) $(VLAZY)

to get

PROGRAMS = $(EVENT) $(HWORLD) $(HSIMPLE) $(MINEXAM) $(TSTRING) \
$(TCOLLEX) $(VVECTOR) $(VLAZY)

and type nmake again.

Hope this helps.
