+Dependencies:
+
+ There are 3 dependencies:
+ - getopt parsing module
+ - dirent structure
+ - sdl library
+
+Architectures:
+ 32 bits architectures are fully supported.
+ 64 bits architectures needs a lot of testing, bacause there are some crashes in the
+  state mapping module.
+ We need to check out the problem in Big Endian architectures, the images aren't
+  uncompressed properly causing Segmentation faults and SDL parachute deployment.
+
+Operating Systems:
+
+GNU/Linux: Fully supported
+ Install libsdl1.2-dev package to fix the sdl dependency.
+ getopt is provided by the GNU library.
+ Since linux is POSIX dirent is supported.
+
+ GCC Compile line:
+ make
+
+Windows: Fully supported
+ Install the windows sdl1.2 developer package to fix the sdl dependency.
+ sdl.dll must be in the same directory where freeprince.exe is
+ getopt must be compiled also, but the port is included in the source.
+ Since windows is not POSIX dirent structure will be compiled also.
+
+ LCC Compile line:
+ make -f makefile.lcc
+
+FreeBSD: Fully supported
+ Install libsdl1.2-dev package to fix the sdl dependency.
+ getopt must be compiled also, but the port is included in the source;
+ you will have to manually enable the getopt compiling adding the parameters
+ to the make line.
+ Since the OS is POSIX dirent is supported.
+ 
+ GCC Compile line:
+ make GETOPTSRC='getopt.o getopt1.o' GETOPTENABLED='-DENABLE_GETOPT'
+
+IRIX: Partially supported
+ Nekoware SDL port should work as the sdl dependency.
+ remeber to make sdl-config accesible to the path (export PATH=$PATH:/usr/nekoware/bin)
+ and to make the proper symlinks for libSDL-1.2.so.1.
+ getopt must be compiled also, but the port is included in the source;
+ you will have to manually enable the getopt compiling adding the parameters
+ to the make line.
+ Dirent is supported.
+ 
+ GCC Compile line:
+ make GETOPTSRC='getopt.o getopt1.o' GETOPTENABLED='-DENABLE_GETOPT'
+
+ Note: Please read the 64 bits architectures problem above.
