I`m trying to compile ethereal for windows using Microsoft`s Visual C...
NMAKE cries that he can`t expand command line for python... I don`t understand... Did anyone ever really try to do this?
I have even killed all spaces between file names...

Although officially ethereal is being compiled by NMAKE, actually it seems to be never tried by anyone...
Of course, may be I do something wrong...
 
Can anyone suggest me any solution for such situation?
I`ll try to learn python usage... But for first sight, I haven`t seen any option allowing to pass filenames by other way...
