+Native MinGW-w64/MSYS compilation
+-----------------------------

+As MSYS doesn't come with pkg-config pre-installed, you need to add it

USB adapters
------------
You usually need to have WinUSB.sys (or libusbK.sys) driver installed
for a USB-based adapter. Some vendor software (e.g. for ST-LINKv2)
does it on its own. For the other cases the easiest way to assign
-WinUSB to a device is to use the Zadig installer:

For the old drivers that use libusb-0.1 API you might need to link
against libusb-win32 headers and install the corresponding driver with
