Hi there,
 
I am desperately need help from you guys, would really appreciate if you
can lend me a hand and spend sometimes with me on the installation of
Gnupg on Windows NT.
 
I am trying to install a copy of Gnupg into my NT platform but really
don't know how to go about it.
With the instruction from Readme.w32, I managed to install
gnupg-w32-1.0.6.zip into my NT and when run gpg.exe, I got this message:
"gpg: Go ahead and type your message ...." at Ms-Dos prompt. Can this
tell that I do it right at this stage and what next?


>From my reading, I understand that I need to build the source which need
the MingW32/CPD kit, and I have got all these .tar and .zip files in place. However to run the MingW32, I will then need the gcc-2.95.2 and binutils 2.8.1 or >=2.9.1., my problems are: 1. They are all unix files, I am doubt that how can I install these copy directly to NT or do I need to do something else to get the compiler run on NT? 2. I have difficulty to source for the gcc and binutils files at the recommended site of "ftp.gnu.org" or even its mirror site. It always contain no data. Anything I can do to get the source? Look forward and million thanks on your reply to the above.
