+Use this directory to build the legacy zlib1.dll for Windows, which contains
+both zlib and minizip. Use cmake either at the command prompt, or with Visual
+Studio as outlined below.
+
+
+To create a Visual Studio project
+---------------------------------
+
+1. Start cmake-gui.
+2. Point source-dir to the source.
+3. Point build-dir to the dir where you want to build.
+4. Hit configure -- there you can select details.
+5. Select the options you want, which are shown with descriptions after the
+   configure run is complete.
+6. Hit configure again to assure that everything that is needed is found.
+7. For those not found, deactivate the option or install the dependency, e.g.
+   bzip2 for minizip, and go back to step 6 until there is no red.
+8. Hit generate.
+9. Hit open project.
+
+Now you can Build > Build solution.
