 == Building from within Visual Studio ==
 WebKit can be built from within Visual Studio by setting two environment variables:
- * {{{WEBKITOUTPUTDIR}}} - An absolute Windows-style path pointing to the directory where you want the build products to go.
- * {{{WEBKITLIBRARIESDIR}}} - An absolute Windows-style path pointing to the WebKitLibraries/win folder in your WebKit checkout.
+ * {{{WEBKIT_OUTPUTDIR}}} - An absolute Windows-style path pointing to the directory where you want the build products to go.
+ * {{{WEBKIT_LIBRARIES}}} - An absolute Windows-style path pointing to the WebKitLibraries/win folder in your WebKit checkout.
 These environment variables should be set for you the first time you run {{{update-webkit}}}.
 
 == Common Build Errors ==
-=== Error spawning cmd.exe / Linker errors ===
-Sometimes, Visual Studio complains that it 'cannot spawn cmd.exe'. Should this happen, check if both your Cygwin\bin folder and c:\windows\sytem32 are in the Visual Studio list of executable files (Tools -> Options -> VC++ Directories) and that your Cygwin\bin appears after the Visual Studio bin folders (Otherwise, the wrong link.exe will be used; that is, the Cygwin link.exe will be used instead of the Visual Studio tool of the same name).
 === Missing Autogenerated Files ===
 If you have the Visual Studio IDE open while you are performing an {{{update-webkit}}}, you can sometimes run into a strange problem where Visual Studio is unable to locate the autogenerated files.  These files are usually things like HTMLNames.cpp, which are generated by Perl as part of the WebCoreGenerated target.

 === Bad line endings ===
 When you see errors in WebCore/css/makeprops or WebCore/css/maketokenizer, open those files in a suitable editor (SciTE works) and convert the line endings to LF only (Unix-style). Then restart the build.
