Can't set up Mingw for OxeFMSynth + scaling issues? about oxefmsynth

[mkruselj]

No definitely install mingw separately, then try.

Also, check out #28

@mkruselj thanks for highlighting the issue. I've tried Mingw from Win-build, as well as Cygwin, but it wasn't working. Finally, tried the Mingw-w64, and the environment seems to be working well, except for the build error.

Just realized that this works without any popups in Git Bash, so probably, this is the Makefile not configured properly for Windows.
uname -s is a UNIX command, I guess.
