-Since VC++1.5 does not handle long file names, it is necessary
-to run the "makesrc.exe" program in this directory to copy
-Python files from the distribution to the directory "src"
-with shortened names. Included file names are shortened too.
-Do this before you attempt to build Python.
-
-The "makesrc.exe" program is a native NT program, and you must
-have NT, Windows 95 or Win32s to run it. Otherwise you will need
-to copy distribution files to src yourself.
-
-The makefiles are named *.mak and are located in directories
-starting with "vc15_". NOTE: When dependencies are scanned
-VC++ will create dependencies for directories which are not
-used because it fails to evaluate "#define" properly. You
-must manaully edit makefiles (*.mak) to remove references to
-"sys/" and other bad directories.
