Release notes MP3X (the LAME frame analyzer) for WIN32

===========================================================================
How to compile Lame with MP3x support:

You first need the proper GTK and GLIB include files and lib files. 
You can get them from the WINGTK project 
http://user.sgic.fi/~tml/gimp/win32/ 
(or see http://www.gtk.org, and click on the WINGTK link).

Download:  glib-dev-VERSION.zip, gtk+-dev-VERSION.zip, extralibs-dev-VERSION.zip
where VERSION = something like 20000201

unzip the files.  this will make a "src" directory. (for example, c:\gtk\src)
Then, in MSVC, under Tools->options->directories, add 
to the "include files" and "library files" settings:
  c:\gtk\src\glib
  c:\gtk\src\gtk+\glib
  c:\gtk\src\gtk+


===========================================================================
To run MP3x.exe, or lame.exe with MP3x support, you need
the GTK DLL files:  Either instal them on your system,
or put them in the same directory as lame.exe.

glib-1.3.dll
gdk-1.3.dll
gtk-1.3.dll
gmodule-1.3.dll
gnu-intl.dll

lame -g myfile

myfile can be a mp3 file, or a wav file.
