Dear William,

Thank you for your answer.

Requirements for installing `vcpkg` are these
(https://vcpkg.io/en/getting-started.html):

- Windows 7 or newer
- Git
- Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 or newer

I can try this, but first I would like to be certain there is no
easier way (installing Visual Studio to not really use it seems a lot
to me!).

[ Why is it so complicated to install and use a third-party library in C?? ]

Regards,
