Fairly new here, not sure if this is the place to ask.

But, how do I build this *nix compatible code on Windows with Visual Studio 2012?

I downloaded the Bytecoin source: http://sourceforge.net/projects/bytecoin-bcn/files/bytecoin-source.zip/download
Then Cmake (latest), Boost pre-built binaries (32-bit), installed both.

Navigated to the bytecoin directory and ran "cmake cmakelists.txt" to which the program replied I need to set some PATH variables to boost lib locations, and that that I don't have GIT or Python installed.

^ Before I spend more time setting path variables, is that how to properly use CMake to build Bytecoin?  I've built a few small programs and worked on projects made for Windows, but never in my life have I ever managed to build anything non-trivial that was *NIX friendly.  I feel like a complete retard not being able to build cross-platform software.
