+       Made some minor build-related updates.  Notably, enabled "silent" make

+       Some minor Windows-specific updates:
+               Fixed a bug where duplicate backslashes could be generated in

+
+               Added instructions for building from source on Windows.

        Added experimental support for Windows VSS (Volume Shadow Copy Service).

+       On Windows, to improve capture performance, wimlib now sometimes opens

+       wimcapture and wimappend, but for now other applications have to opt-in.
 
        The progress messages printed by wimlib-imagex while writing WIM files
        have been slightly tweaked.
