I’m learning how to build Firefox from CVS. If you’re doing the same, this page, of course, is the key: http://www.mozilla.org/cvs.html
You can get CVS here: https://www.cvshome.org/ (takes some looking for, though)
You can get GNU make as a package with Cygwin from http://www.cygwin.com/
I’m building it now. It’s huge! Perhaps I’m doing something wrong. I just want to make a few modifications and submit it to a Bugzilla report.

when firefox attempts to download a file (.cab, .exe, .dll, ect..), the classID of the file/object is displayed in the download dialogue box (open/save option). In the source code,I am trying to understand how firefox extracts the CLSID from these files, and was hoping anyone might be
able to point me in the right direction.
You should write a tutorial for the newbies like me, then I don’t have to take 2 hours figuring it out lol.
what changes are you making?
The building process isn’t short. Just sit through it. Well, have fun with Cygwin, it should be a good learning experience for anyone the bothers to use it. Well, it’s as close you can get to the real UNIX.
