Tentative Instructions for Windows

[Varriount]

I think I have some tentative instructions for using nlvm on Windows, should I write them up here, or add to the README, or what?

[arnetheduck]

That's great - a patch to README, in a separate section maybe? I won't be able to maintain them though, so if you can also help keep them up to date, that would be great.

I'd love to see that! This project needs to get more momentum! Transpiling to C is really so 1970s...

@Hades32 nim is not transpiled to C (if you were serious with your message).

[Hades32]

@Yardanico and why is the documentation ( https://nim-lang.org/docs/backends.html ) say so and why are all these ".c" files lying in my workdir then? Or do you just not like the term "transpiling"?

@Hades32 term "transpiling".

[Hades32]

@Yardanico not sure what I'm supposed to do with that cut off screenshot... Nevertheless the term used, it has been shown in a few projects that using LLVM-IR as an intermediate language produces more efficient code than using C as an intermediate language. Therefore I hope for @arnetheduck 's success...

hey @Varriount , did you ever get around to make nlvm fly on windows?

[arnetheduck]

seems not, happy to see a patch one fine day
