Attempt to get the TEA builder in the amalgamation-autoconf tarball working
using hints from Jan Nijtmans.

 This is the SQLite extension for Tcl using the Tcl Extension
-Architecture (TEA).  For additional information on SQLite see
+Architecture (TEA).

--------------------------------------------------------------------
-Update 2024-10-11:
+----------------------- A BETTER WAY ---------------------------
 
 A better way to build the TCL extension for SQLite is to use the
 canonical source code tarball.  For Unix:
 
-   ./configure --with-tclsh=$(TCLSH)
-   make tclextension-install
+    ./configure --with-tclsh=$(TCLSH)
+    make tclextension-install
 
 For Windows:
 
-   nmake /f Makefile.msc tclextension-install TCLSH_CMD=$(TCLSH)
+    nmake /f Makefile.msc tclextension-install TCLSH_CMD=$(TCLSH)
 
 In both of the above, replace $(TCLSH) with the full pathname of
-of the tclsh that you want the SQLite extension to work with.
+of the tclsh that you want the SQLite extension to work with.  See
+step-by-step instructions at the links below for more information:
+
+    https://sqlite.org/src/doc/trunk/doc/compile-for-unix.md
+    https://sqlite.org/src/doc/trunk/doc/compile-for-windows.md
+
+The whole point of the amalgamation-autoconf tarball (in which this
+README.txt file is embedded) is to provide a means of compiling
+SQLite that does not require first installing TCL and/or "tclsh".
+The canonical Makefile in the SQLite source tree provides more
+capabilities (such as the the ability to run test cases to ensure
+that the build worked) and is better maintained.  The only
+downside of the canonical Makfile is that it requires a TCL
+installation.  But if you are wanting to build the TCL extension for
+SQLite, then presumably you already have a TCL installation.  So why
+not just use the more-capable and better-maintained canoncal Makefile?
+
+This TEA builder is derived from code found at
+
+    http://core.tcl-lang.org/tclconfig
+    http://core.tcl-lang.org/sampleextension
+
+The SQLite developers do not understand how it works.  It seems to
+work for us.  It might also work for you.  But we cannot promise that.
+
+If you want to use this TEA builder and it works for you, that's fine.
+But if you have trouble, your the first thing you should do is go back
+to using the canonical Makefile in the SQLite source tree.
 
-This TEA builder is antiquated.  It does not work for TCL9.  The
-SQLite devs don't know how to fix it.  If you would like to help
-fix it, contact us.

-# Microsoft Visual C++ makefile for use with nmake.exe v1.62+ (VC++ 5.0+)
+# Sample makefile for building Tcl extensions.
 #
-# This makefile is based upon the Tcl 8.4 Makefile.vc and modified to 
-# make it suitable as a general package makefile. Look for the word EDIT
-# which marks sections that may need modification. As a minumum you will
-# need to change the PROJECT, DOTVERSION and DLLOBJS variables to values
-# relevant to your package.
+# Basic build, test and install
+#   nmake /s /nologo /f makefile.vc INSTALLDIR=c:\path\to\tcl
+#   nmake /s /nologo /f makefile.vc INSTALLDIR=c:\path\to\tcl test
+#   nmake /s /nologo /f makefile.vc INSTALLDIR=c:\path\to\tcl install
+#
+# For other build options (debug, static etc.)
+# See TIP 477 (https://core.tcl.tk/tips/doc/trunk/tip/477.md) for

-You will need to run vcvars32.bat from Developer Studio, first, to setup^

-!error $(MSG)
-!endif
-
 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-# HOW TO USE this makefile:
-#
-# 1)  It is now necessary to have %MSVCDir% set in the environment.  This is
-#     used  as a check to see if vcvars32.bat had been run prior to running
-#     nmake or during the installation of Microsoft Visual C++, MSVCDir had
-#     been set globally and the PATH adjusted.  Either way is valid.
-#
-#     You'll need to run vcvars32.bat contained in the MsDev's vc(98)/bin
-#     directory to setup the proper environment, if needed, for your current
-#     setup.  This is a needed bootstrap requirement and allows the swapping of
-#     different environments to be easier.
-#
-# 2)  To use the Platform SDK (not expressly needed), run setenv.bat after
-#     vcvars32.bat according to the instructions for it.  This can also turn on
-#     the 64-bit compiler, if your SDK has it.
-#
-# 3)  Targets are:
-#	all       -- Builds everything.
-#       <project> -- Builds the project (eg: nmake sample)
-#	test      -- Builds and runs the test suite.
-#	install   -- Installs the built binaries and libraries to $(INSTALLDIR)
-#		     in an appropriate subdirectory.
-#	clean/realclean/distclean -- varying levels of cleaning.
-#
-# 4)  Macros usable on the commandline:
-#	INSTALLDIR=<path>
-#		Sets where to install Tcl from the built binaries.
-#		C:\Progra~1\Tcl is assumed when not specified.
-#
-#	OPTS=static,msvcrt,staticpkg,threads,symbols,profile,loimpact,none
-#		Sets special options for the core.  The default is for none.
-#		Any combination of the above may be used (comma separated).
-#		'none' will over-ride everything to nothing.
-#
-#		static  =  Builds a static library of the core instead of a
-#			   dll.  The shell will be static (and large), as well.
-#		msvcrt  =  Effects the static option only to switch it from
-#			   using libcmt(d) as the C runtime [by default] to
-#			   msvcrt(d). This is useful for static embedding
-#			   support.
-#		staticpkg = Effects the static option only to switch
-#			   tclshXX.exe to have the dde and reg extension linked
-#			   inside it.
-#		threads =  Turns on full multithreading support.
-#		thrdalloc = Use the thread allocator (shared global free pool).
-#		symbols =  Adds symbols for step debugging.
-#		profile =  Adds profiling hooks.  Map file is assumed.
-#		loimpact =  Adds a flag for how NT treats the heap to keep memory
-#			   in use, low.  This is said to impact alloc performance.
-#
-#	STATS=memdbg,compdbg,none
-#		Sets optional memory and bytecode compiler debugging code added
-#		to the core.  The default is for none.  Any combination of the
-#		above may be used (comma separated).  'none' will over-ride
-#		everything to nothing.
-#
-#		memdbg   = Enables the debugging memory allocator.
-#		compdbg  = Enables byte compilation logging.
-#
-#	MACHINE=(IX86|IA64|ALPHA)
-#		Set the machine type used for the compiler, linker, and
-#		resource compiler.  This hook is needed to tell the tools
-#		when alternate platforms are requested.  IX86 is the default
-#		when not specified.
-#
-#	TMP_DIR=<path>
-#	OUT_DIR=<path>
-#		Hooks to allow the intermediate and output directories to be
-#		changed.  $(OUT_DIR) is assumed to be 
-#		$(BINROOT)\(Release|Debug) based on if symbols are requested.
-#		$(TMP_DIR) will de $(OUT_DIR)\<buildtype> by default.
-#
-#	TESTPAT=<file>
-#		Reads the tests requested to be run from this file.
-#
-#	CFG_ENCODING=encoding
-#		name of encoding for configuration information. Defaults
-#		to cp1252
-#
-# 5)  Examples:
-#
-#	Basic syntax of calling nmake looks like this:
-#	nmake [-nologo] -f makefile.vc [target|macrodef [target|macrodef] [...]]
-#
-#                        Standard (no frills)
-#       c:\tcl_src\win\>c:\progra~1\micros~1\vc98\bin\vcvars32.bat
-#       Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual C++ tools.
-#       c:\tcl_src\win\>nmake -f makefile.vc all
-#       c:\tcl_src\win\>nmake -f makefile.vc install INSTALLDIR=c:\progra~1\tcl
-#
-#                         Building for Win64
-#       c:\tcl_src\win\>c:\progra~1\micros~1\vc98\bin\vcvars32.bat
-#       Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual C++ tools.
-#       c:\tcl_src\win\>c:\progra~1\platfo~1\setenv.bat /pre64 /RETAIL
-#       Targeting Windows pre64 RETAIL
-#       c:\tcl_src\win\>nmake -f makefile.vc MACHINE=IA64

+# 2. Figure out our build structure in terms of the directory, whether

+# 3. Determine the compiler and linker versions
+# 4. Build the nmakehlp helper application
+# 5. Determine the supported compiler options and features
+# 6. Extract Tcl, Tk, and possibly extensions, version numbers from the
+#    headers
+# 7. Parse the OPTS macro value for user-specified build configuration
+# 8. Parse the STATS macro value for statistics instrumentation
+# 9. Parse the CHECKS macro for additional compilation checks
+# 10. Based on this selected configuration, construct the output
+#     directory and file paths
+# 11. Construct the paths where the package is to be installed
+# 12. Set up the actual options passed to compiler and linker based
