Alchemy v0.5a Installation Notes

Got a new notebook, so I will post some notes for future reference. Here is the one for Adobe Alchemy,

Environment: Windows 7.
Official Instructions:
http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Alchemy:Documentation:Getting_Started#Windows

1. Go to http://cygwin.com/install.html, download the "setup.exe" and install cygwin (to C:\cygwin) with the following packages:
zip (archive), gcc-g++, make (devel), perl.


2. Downloaded alchemy package at http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/alchemy.html,
(Backup: https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B5V2PrQ8xX_EN2NCWHkySGlMclE/edit)
unzip it to D:\alchemy-cygwin-v0.5a.

3. Open Cygwin Terminal, input the following commands:
cd D:\alchemy-cygwin-v0.5a
./config


4. Test alchemy with the commands to build the sample files:
source /cygdrive/d/alchemy-cygwin-v0.5a/alchemy-setup
alc-on
cd D:/alchemy-cygwin-v0.5a/samples/HelloFlash
gcc HelloFlash.c -O3 -Wall -swf -o HelloFlash.swf

and

cd D:/alchemy-cygwin-v0.5a/samples/stringecho
gcc stringecho.c -O3 -Wall -swc -o stringecho.swc

It works and successfully generated the swf and swc files!
