Hi PortMedia developers and users,

Wanted to share some info on this, because building portmidi on Windows
using MinGW proved to be a little challenging ;)

I had to build portmidi myself because I needed 64-bit dll's which I
couldn't find precompiled.


Steps to build yourself:
- Install MinGW (I used http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/) and add
MinGW\bin to your PATH
- Install Cmake and add Cmake\bin to your PATH
- cd to the portmidi sources root folder
- execute cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" -D CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM=mingw32-make.exe
-D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .
- execute mingw32-make.exe

Best regards,
Simon


P.S. I find sourceforge very unwieldy to work with, that's why I'm sharing
this info over the mailing list. Would offcourse prefer to create a
pull-request. Is there any chance of switching over to GitHub?
