To compile using MicroSoft Visual Studio 2003.NET, do this:

1) Checkout Qt/Free from CVS next to lyx-devel and compile.
   See http://kde-cygwin.sourceforge.net/qt3-win32/compile-net.php
   for more info.
2) Make sure QTDIR is set in your global environment, and QTDIR\bin
   is in your path. Control panel, system, advanced, environment
   variables in your friend on Windows XP.
3) Apply the win32_kludge.diff using GNU patch. Download from
   http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/patch.htm
   and type "patch -p0 < development\win32\win32_kludge.diff"
   in cmd box with current working directory right outside
   lyx-devel
4) Open the development\win32\lyx.sln file in Visual Studio,
   compile and run. You can probably also use the free version
   of Microsoft's compiler, but I haven't tried that.

Development:

To get a stack-trace for assertions in LyX, make a breakpoint
in src/Boost.C.

To run LyX, you need a bunch of generated files from configure.
You can find these on the LyX mailing list in January 2005.
