A writeup on the wiki "Build and install instructions for all platforms" could be of use.

There are instructions in https://github.com/gambit/gambit/blob/master/INSTALL.txt and https://github.com/gambit/gambit/blob/master/README.md .. and they are coming with a problem that they are not so elaborated, so it would be nice if the wiki page would provide the contextual understanding of what's going on and what to do for the unintroduced.

Something like this :)

You are probably better off using misc/vctoolkit.bat which is more complete and easier to modify.
