README for port of Mesa to XFree86 on OS/2
                           (as of 19980802)


Instructions to build Mesa for XFree86/OS2:

You need a recent version of XFree86 (3.3x or above) installed including
the supplied programming libraries and tools as well as EMX 0.9c (and above).

Beginning after beta 7 there's again support for creating DLLs.
The details are handled in "mklib-emx.cmd" a small REXX script.
By now it does ensure compatiblity by using the function names as
entry points instead of ordinals. This will cost performance and
might be fixed in a future patch.

We switched to the usual build method
(based on Makefile and make-config) beginning with Mesa 3.0 beta 5.
To use most of the standard files (including shell scripts) you should
have a un*x shell (sh) in path.

To actually build the (static) libraries and demos type
  make os2
