Need build scripts for Windows and Mac

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The initial release of Google Test contains autotools-based build scripts.
 We need to add support for Windows and Mac OS X.

Make sure cygwin is covered as well.

Hi,

I'm quite interested in this project. Maybe you could have cross plataform 
scripts by
using an specific tool like CMake. That would be nice for sure.

We support building on Cygwin, Mac OS X, and Windows (using VS project files) 
now. 
Check out trunk or release-1.0.1.

Just downloaded it today (9/10) and tried to build it on Windows with VS 2005. 
Only 
gtest and gtest_main projects can be built. All other projects failed with many 
linking errors. Sorry don't have much time debugging them.

Below is the errors from gtest_color_test_ projects:
