+\r
+These instructions have now been turned turned into a series of scripts to produce the Viking installer:\r
+\r
+1. prepare.bat\r
+2a. configure_and_make.bat\r
+2b. make.bat\r
+3. installer.bat\r
+\r
+The scripts are aimed at a pristine Windows XP installation.\r
+Using *prepare.bat* will attempt to *download* and *install* various Open Source software to aid this process.\r
+An administrator level account is needed to run this which will *modify* your system.\r
+\r
+The other scripts simply make use of these (assumed) available system programs.\r
+\r
+This setup is for dedicated usage to build Viking, primarily under Wine with:\r
+\r
+ ./generate_install.sh\r
+\r
+Such that any Windows system (or of course a Virtual Machine) can be simply deleted (e.g. rm -rf /.wine) and recreated fully via the scripts.\r
+\r
+From Viking 1.4 onwards this is how the Windows viking-W.X.Y.Z.exe installer file is produced.\r
