[Ayman Kamal]

Ok Sir,
I read nmake.opt and apps\makefile.vc
I didn't change makevile.vc
I changed nmake.opt to be as follows, and then used
Windows Command Prompt to invoke make file from within
the apps directory:

nmake /f makefile.vc

After that I got the following error:

NMAKE : fatal error U1073: don't know how to make
'../gdal.lib'
Stop.

Here is the namke.opt file listing
