[IGSTK-Developers] The Book

[Matt Turek]

I am building on Windows using MikTex and Visual Studio C++ 2008 Express.

I've attached the CMake files I modified to get the build to work. I
also added a target to run a PDF reader on the output which uses
FindPDFReader.cmake (also attached). One CMake file is from TheBook
directory, and the other is from TheBook/Latex. One of the problems I
fixed was with the "tee" command.

I didn't take the time to try other platforms, so I haven't checked in
the CMake files.

I think there's a windows binary installer for Graphviz here:
http://www.graphviz.org/Download_windows.php (you'll need to accept
the download terms).

You'll also need to get fig2dev, which I think I got here:
http://tams-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/applets/jfig/archive/fig2dev3.2.3d-windows.zip
