+Building and using gnuradio on windows (win32) using mingw
+
+Required tools and libraries
+
+MingW and Msys 
+Download the latest stable version from the mingw site oand follow their installation instructions)
+
+Python for windows version 2.4 (or higher)
+You do not need to build this yourself.
+You can just install the windows executable which you can find on the python site.
+I am not sure if it will work if you have speces in your python pathname.
+I recommend installing it in C:\Python24 or D:\Python24
+
+Libtool
+If you are building from cvs you need a recent libtool
+msys comes with libtool, but the version distributed with current mingw doesn't work with gnuradio.
+download, build and install a recent libtool
+
+cppunit
+Build and install cppunit
+
+boost
+build and install boost (maybe you can get away with only unpacking the source, we only use the boost header files)
+If you build boost, you first have to download jam (boost jam) for win32. (Do not use build and use the cygwin version)
+
+build environment:
+You need to have the following files on your PATH:
+python.exe python24.dll libcppunit-1-10-2.dll libfftw3f-3.dll fftwf-wisdom.exe cppunit-config
+If you have cygwin installed Make sure that NO cygwin executables are on your path.
+
+needed on PATH:
+/usr/local/bin
+/mingw/bin
+/bin
+/c/Python24/		python.exe
+/c/Python24/libs	python24.dll
+/c/Python24/DLLs
+/usr/local/bin or /mingw/bin or /my/special/installed/lib/folder/bin
+			libcppunit-1-10-2.dll
+			libfftw3f-3.dll
+			fftw-wisdom-to-conf
+			fftwf-wisdom.exe
+			cppunit-config
+/c/WINNT/system32
+/c/WINNT
+
+
+I made a little script set_clean_path.sh to set my path for building gnuradio where I just discard the original PATH (to get rid of the cygwin executables on my default path)  and just include what is needed:
+
+#!/bin/sh
+export PATH=".:/usr/local/bin:/mingw/bin:/bin:/c/Python24:/c/Python24/DLLs:/c/Python24/libs:/my/special/installed/lib/folder/bin:/c/WINNT/system32:/c/WINNT:/c/WINNT/System32/Wbem:.
+
+You need to source this script to set the PATH.
+. ./set_clean_path.sh
+(notice the extra dot and space in the beginning of the line, this means source this file. Sourcing means execute it and remember all environment variables set in this script)
+
+If you are building from cvs it is recommended that you edit bootstrap to your needs and use it
+If you built a recent libtool and didn't overwrite the original libtool
+(because you installed the new version in /usr/local) then you have to tell aclocal to use the more recent libtool m4 macros.
+You can do this by appending -I /usr/local/share/aclocal to the aclocal commandline
+I also changed the aclocal and automake invocations to use the most recent version in my bootstrap script
+Here follows the bootstrap script I use
+
+#!/bin/sh
+rm -fr config.cache autom4te*.cache
+
+aclocal-1.8 -I config -I /usr/local/share/aclocal
+autoconf
+autoheader
+libtoolize --automake
+automake-1.8 --add-missing
+
+If you run this script it will convert a clean cvs checkout to a version which you can configure, build and install
+
+So now you can configure gnuradio.
+On win32 /mingw you need to give it a few parameters
+You need to tell it where cppunit is installed
+where boost include files are to be found
+where the pkg-config of libfftw is to be found
+to use a generic cpu (no 3Dnow,SSE,MMX) (This option will not be needed anymore soon)
+If you have boost installed in C:\boost_1_32_0 and cppunit and fftw in /usr/local then you would need the following configur commandline
+$ ./configure --with-md-cpu=generic --with-cppunit-prefix=/usr/local --with-boost-include-dir=/c/boost_1_32_0/include/boost-1_32 PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
+
+If everything went well you cannow do
+make
+make install
+
+Now you have a working gnuradio-core
+Now you can go on building and installing gr-audio-windows and windows usrp and wxgui
+remember that all gnuradio and python dlls need to be on your path to use gnuradio
+The gnuradio dlls are installed at
+/c/Python24/Lib/site-packages:/c/Python24/Lib/site-packages/gnuradio:/c/Python24/Lib/site-packages/gnuradio/gr
