        !             8: 
        !             9: The Microsoft Foundation Classes for Windows NT (MFC 2.1) provide
        !            10: limited support for Windows NT running on platforms other than
        !            11: Intel.  This support is provided as-is for customers who want to 
        !            12: compile their applications on non-Intel machines.
        !            13:

        !            15: Tools
        !            16: -----
        !            17: Microsoft Visual C++ for Windows NT does not include tools or
        !            18: support for the non-Intel platforms.  This Windows NT SDK provides
        !            19: tools to compile for these platforms, 
        !            20:

        !            22: Microsoft Foundation Classes
        !            23: ----------------------------
        !            24: This SDK provides a subset of MFC files that can be used to
        !            25: upgrade your Microsoft Visual C++ to include support for all the
        !            26: currently supported platforms.  Simply overlay these files on
        !            27: your MSVCNT installation, replacing the original files.
        !            28: 
        !            29: 
        !            30: Supported Platforms
        !            31: -------------------
        !            32: Currently, this version of the Microsoft Foundation Classes supports
        !            33: the Intel x86, MIPS R4x00, and DEC Alpha AXP platforms.  Please see
        !            34: the text file for the appropriate platform for more specific information.
        !            35: Other platforms will be added to this SDK in the future.
        !            36: 
        !            37: 
        !            38: Scribble
        !            39: --------
        !            40: The Scribble sample is tutorial code for Microsoft Visual C++.
        !            41: Since the tools needed for the tutorial are only supported on the 
        !            42: Intel platform, the Scribble sample is not supported on the non-Intel
        !            43: platforms.  However, this SDK provides new MAKEFILEs for you to 
        !            44: rebuild Scribble with these tools.
        !            45: 
        !            46: 
        !            47: Other non-Intel Platforms
        !            48: -------------------------
        !            49: As compilers become available for Windows NT on other platforms,
        !            50: it is possible that MFC can be used as-is on that platform.  The
        !            51: library code has been designed to be portable.  However, since MFC
        !            52: has not been tested on these platforms, compiling for these platforms
        !            53: is at-your-own-risk.
        !            54: 
        !            55: The following files will require modifications:
        !            56: 
        !            57: MFC\INCLUDE\AFXV_CPU.H:
        !            58: As shipped, this file contains code for the supported platforms.  For
        !            59: other platforms, it should be extended with the modifications needed
        !            60: for compiler or platform specific constructs.  Typically this will
        !            61: be enabling, disabling, or redefining the items in AFXVER_.H
        !            62: 
        !            63: MFC\SRC\MAKEFILE:
        !            64: MFC\SAMPLES\SAMPLE_.MAK:
        !            65: Define a new PLATFORM name, and wherever PLATFORM is used, add a new
        !            66: section to define the tools and flags appropriately.
        !            67: 
        !            68: Note: The version of nmake shipped with the Windows NT SDK does not
        !            69: support the full syntax of the version in Microsoft Visual C++.  In
        !            70: particular, !elsif is not supported.
        !            71:
