This is a preliminary release of the DVDSynth source code (that part of it
which works, anyway). I make no claims of cleanliness, functionality, etc.

All DVDSynth components should build with VC++ 6.0. Most components also
build with MinGW, except for dvdproxy.mpd, dvdproxy.sys, and
MirrorDrive95.kll (and those only because I haven't ported them yet). Be
careful about this last, because if you build MirrorDrive95.dll without
MirrorDrive95.kll and try to run the result, you will probably get a nasty
crash. The MinGW Makefile is kinda broken; in particular it doesn't know
anything about the header files.

You will also need NASM (a free assembler) to build the one ASM file
that's currently in the distribution. You should not need the Windows DDK
or any Windows header files beyond what come with VC++ and MinGW.

There is a lot of code duplication in components which have separate "2k"
and "95" versions. Eventually I will merge them and use conditional
compilation.

The VC++ projects put executable files into ./testbed (debug build) or
./testbed-release (release build). The MinGW Makefile uses ./testbed.
