MSYS Makefiles
--------------

Generates makefiles for use with MSYS (Minimal SYStem)
``make`` under the MSYS shell.

Use this generator in a MSYS shell prompt and using ``make`` as the build
tool.  The generated makefiles use ``/bin/sh`` as the shell to launch build
rules.  They are not compatible with a Windows command prompt.

To build under a Windows command prompt, use the
:generator:`MinGW Makefiles` generator.
