PORTABILITY
-wimlib has mostly been developed and tested on x86_64 (64-bit) GNU/Linux.
-
-It has been tested on x86 (32-bit) GNU/Linux occasionally.
+wimlib has primarily been tested on Linux and Windows (primarily Windows 7, but
+also Windows XP and Windows 8).
wimlib may work on FreeBSD and Mac OS X. However, this is not well tested. If
you do not have libntfs-3g 2011-4-12 or later available, you must configure
The code pays attention to endianness, so it should work on big-endian

-As of wimlib 1.3.0, there is experimental support for Microsoft Windows. I
-expect it to work on Windows Vista and later, although I have only tested it on
-Windows 7. See README.WINDOWS for more information.
