+How to build a windows release:
+
+Get the i386 binary file and unpack it.
+
+    cd mit-scheme-XX.YY\src
+    etc\windows\compile-prepare.bat
+    etc\windows\make-lib.bat
+    etc\windows\build-band.bat
+
+then, at the Scheme prompt:
+
+    (load "../etc/windows/build-band")
+
+Finally, edit the file "dist/scheme-inst.nsi" to reflect the new
+version number and the location of the "mit-scheme-XX.YY" directory,
+and compile it using NSIS.
