[plt-scheme] mzc embedding question

Sorry for the confusing. I didn't read carefully, and replied based on 
vague memory.

Using command line under Windows, here's some old script I used:

call "%VS80COMNTOOLS%vsvars32.bat" x86
SET CL=/nologo /c /DWIN32 /D_WINDOWS /W3 /ML /O2 /DNDEBUG /I"C:\Program 
Files\PLT\include"
SET LINK=/NOLOGO /SUBSYSTEM:windows /INCREMENTAL:no /PDB:NONE 
/LIBPATH:"C:\Program Files\PLT\lib\msvc"
CL yourfile.c
LINK yourfile.obj libmzsch370_000.lib libmzgc370_000.lib /OUT:yourfile.exe

You can also set everything up in MS Visual Studio. The only thing you 
need to do is to add the two file "libmzsch370_000.lib" & 
"libmzgc370_000.lib":

"Project" menu, "you_project_name Properties", "Configuration 
Properties", "Linker", "Input", "Additional Dependicies",

Put the two lib file names there should work.
