Compiling Celestia tools

[CAP-Team]

Since a couple of weeks I'm able to compile my own win32 executables from SVN source, with the Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition.

The SVN source also has some tools, like spice2xyvz which I also would like to compile and use. I am not able to compile it, VS2008 wants to convert the .mak file but it says it's broken.

How do I do this? I found some resource on the internet that said I should create a new project, but I'm not that much into C++ development.

I've created script called build.bat to compile spice2xyzv on Windows systems. The script (as well as a minor fix for spice2xyzv) are in SVN (revision 5046).

Thanx! I'll give it a try.
