+What is so special about '''x2c''' then? This program converts our platform independent generated C code into a platform specific C code. However this program has to run on your host platform and the default build of the runtime built it for the target. So you need to do the following two steps to compile the proper executable for your target platform:

-mkdir $ISE_PLATFORM
+To build a delivery for any platform, you first need to create the delivery layout correctly. The building of that layout differs between Windows and Unix.
-mkdir $ISE_PLATFORM/bin
-mkdir $ISE_PLATFORM/include
-mkdir $ISE_PLATFORM/lib
-cp $EIFFEL_SRC/C/run-time/*.h $NEW_ISE_EIFFEL/studio/spec/$ISE_PLATFORM/include
+On Unix, you have to do the following:
-</pre>

-On Unix, you need to do the following:
+On Windows, this:
-<pre>
+ cd $NEW_ISE_EIFFEL/studio/config
-cp $EIFFEL_SRC/C/config.sh $NEW_ISE_EIFFEL/studio/spec/$ISE_PLATFORM/include

-cd $NEW_ISE_EIFFEL/studio/config
+==Building a delivery for the same platform==
-cp -r unix $ISE_PLATFORM
+After having followed the instructions to compile EiffelStudio, you must have the runtime compiled. Then you first need to copy the new headers:
-cd $NEW_ISE_EIFFEL/studio/spec/$ISE_PLATFORM/bin
+ cp $EIFFEL_SRC/C/run-time/*.h $NEW_ISE_EIFFEL/studio/spec/$ISE_PLATFORM/include
-ln -s $NEW_ISE_EIFFEL/studio/spec/unix/finish_freezing .
