Steps to modify Code::Blocks projects for Non-Unicode Build

Save the ANSI.sed script file to the folder above or in the Code::Blocks source.

1. I save mine above the codeblocks folder that contains the Code::Blocks source.

Edit the sed-ANSI-out.bat batch file so SEDFOLDER and CBFOLDER are set right

1. SEDFOLDER needs to be the full path to the folder holding ANSI.sed script file.
2. CBFOLDER needs to be the full path to the folder holding the Code::Blocks source.

Save the ContribPlugins-ANSI.workspace workspace file

1. Save it in the folder that contains ContribPlugins.workspace normally the src folder.

Use Codeblocks to Compile the project and workspace

1. Compile CodeBlocks-ANSI.cbp
2. Compile ContribPlugins-ANSI.workspace
