   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.
