+These Milkshape plugins require a DLL that allows the plugin to function
+(DON'T get me started on the genius of returning C++ classes from DLLs...)
+
+Details on building this are in step II.
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+I. GETTING STARTED
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Pre-requisites:
+
+    mingw with msys.
+
+    Microsoft C++ Compiler (I used the free Visual C++ 2003 Toolkit).  This
+    is optional.
+
+    w32dlib -- this is a simple Win32 dialog library available from:
+    	http://www.wherewilliputthisbloodything?.com/
+
+    Edit make.conf and set the path to your Milkshape SDK as appropriate.
+    Also edit the other variables as you see fit.
+
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+II. BUILDING THE DLL WRAPPER
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+If you wish to build your own wrapper then:
+
+    1. Open a command tool (with paths set to the MS C++ compiler) and cd
+       into the wrapper directory.
+
+    2. type 'nmake'.
+
+    3. Copy the resulting mingwms.dll to your Milkshape application directory.
+
+
+If you wish to use the pre-built wrapper (the DLL and LIB file are part of
+the source release for people without the compiler), simply:
+
+    1. Copy the wrapper/mingwms.dll to your Milkshape application directory.
+
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+III. BUILDING THE TEST DLL
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+You can skip this if your feeling over-confident...
+
+    1. Open an MSYS shell.
+
+    2. cd test
+
+    3. Type make.
+
+    4. Copy the resulting mstest.dll to your Milkshape application directory.
+
+    5. Run Milkshape and test the "Mingw test plugin".  It simply displays
+       the names of the meshes in a model using the medium of Message Boxes.
+
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+IV. BUILDING THE (SIMPLE) OPENGL DLL
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+    1. Open an MSYS shell.
+
+    2. cd opengl
+
+    3. make depend
+
+    3. make
+
+    4. Copy the resulting msGLExport.dll to your Milkshape directory.
+
+    5. Run Milkshape, load a model and you can export using "Simple OpenGL".
+
+    6. Docs for this will are available in docs/msGLExport.txt
+
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+IV. BUILDING THE EXPLODE MODEL DLL
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+    1. Open an MSYS shell.
+
+    2. cd groupexplode
+
+    3. make depend
+
+    3. make
+
+    4. Copy the resulting msGrpExplode.dll to your Milkshape directory.
+
+    5. Run Milkshape, load a model and you can use the "Group Exploder" tool.
+
+    6. Docs for this will are available in docs/msGrpExplode.txt
