Paths

Sounds like your PATHS are wrong …

This is always fun.

You need to “locate” the nmake.exe and ensure that the path to this file eg, c:\myfiles\nmake.exe is listed in PATH

This is something someone told me i needed to do to finish compiling a program (anope IRC services)

Frankly I'm rather new to all of this and have no clue exactlly what to do

Any help would be greatly appreciated

yes but I have that (is a doc distributed with the .tar)

That File does not contain any info about PATHS and the such
Edit:
In fact I talked to one of the staff about it... is the message in my first post.. though he said he wasn't in the position to explain

See example
START,Run, type cmd, press enter key.
On the command line type the path to the nmake.exe file (if you put it someplace other than shown in example) press enter. Type path and press enter to see if it's correct, redo if necessary, then type exit.
