Hey Ahmed,

thanks for coming back.
But I've already set up the path accordingly to your suggestion.
So, it still stumbling over the launch of 'w9xpopen.exe' as
mentioned in action 3.

> action 3)
> - running Windows-98 command prompt
> - setting VS 6.0 environment by calling vcvars32.bat
> - cd /omni/src
> - \cygwin\bin\make export
> It starts compiling ('rm' et.al. are not known) and during call of
> 'install -c <file.exe>' the installation of vim starts.
> Ignoring that and the compilation process continues, but later on
> stumbles about not being able to launch 'w9xpopen.exe' during launch
> of omniidl, even the path to w9xpopen is set correctly.
