How do I compile the z-wamp project in Windows?

 makefile   2012-03-20  bcosca bcosca   [6a5635] 2.1.1 pre-release
 manifest.rc    2012-03-15  bcosca bcosca   [99a236] 2.1.0 baseline
 zwamp.ico  2012-03-15  bcosca bcosca   [99a236] 2.1.0 baseline
 zwamp.manifest 2012-03-15  bcosca bcosca   [99a236] 2.1.0 baseline
 zwamp.p    2012-03-20  bcosca bcosca   [6a5635] 2.1.1 pre-release
 zwamp.rc   2012-03-20  bcosca bcosca   [6a5635] 2.1.1 pre-release

I can't easily look at the source and understand the code but i really don't know how to recompile it and build an .exe. Minor modifications needed.

Which IDE do I need?

I have taken a look at the source code of the linked project. The code is written in Delphi (also known as Turbo Pascal). I don't know which version of Delphi, though. I can't find any usage of "new" features, so I think it's enough to compile it with Borland's old Delphi 7 (I don't have a link to the installer but the developer released free keys: http://www.entwickler-ecke.de/topic_Offiziell+freigegebene+Delphi+7+Personal+Seriennummer_92913,0.html text inside white rectangle)

@GiantTree Cannot find Delphi 7. Is possible to use Lazarus instead? If yes, do you know how? – user34295 – 2015-08-16T15:22:15.523

Looking at the wiki about Lazarus, I think it's simple to use Lazarus for that task. Just create a new project, add all the code and resources to the project and compile it. I can't find a reason for it to not work. – GiantTree – 2015-08-16T15:33:15.247
