[texworks] Building TeXworks on WinXP

[Alain Delmotte]

Hi,

Good news: I completely reinstalled MSVC++ Express with the 2005 version 
and followed the instructions you gave.
I managed to compile TeXworks and the copy of the files to my portable 
did also work.

(NB. still the same 2 missing files)

Thanks for the work,

Alain

Yes it is!! :-)

In fact one could say: *not containing space or special characters (this

I am not sure here that you should not use the \ in place of /, that is 
what I did, ex.: C:\KDE\include\poppler\qt4
