It looks correct, although I think it might be a bit distracting. I'd
put the following text above the listing.


The tools you need to compile software for Haiku, or to compile Haiku
itself, depend on the platform you want to perform this build in.
Recently Haiku itself became usuable to develop on, so if you want to
build third party tools from within Haiku, you should fetch the tool
chain from below. To compile Haiku itself, you can also build from an
older BeOS installation or even from Linux. In case you have a limited
amount of partitions, this can be an excellent alternative. The
following list shows the tools you need sorted by host platform.


Also, I think you need at least flex and bison to build the 'rc' tool
(in trunk/src/tools/rc), so these aren't optional if you are building
from Haiku itself. The rest of the tools do look optional.

I hope this answers your questions, if not, let me know.

Niels
