Thanks. I've fixed that part; the next text now reads:
D. Bootstrapping from a Zip or Installer File under Windows
--------------------------------------------------------
Of all the ways of getting a Subversion client, this is the
easiest. Download a Zip (*.zip) or self-extracting installer
(*-setup.exe) file from:
http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=91
For a Zip file, run your unzipping utility (WinZIP, ZipGenius,
UltimateZIP, FreeZIP, whatever) and extract the DLLs and EXEs to
a directory of your choice. Included in the download is the SVN
client, the SVNADMIN administration tool, and the SVNLOOK
reporting tool.
Now open a DOS box (run either "cmd" or "command" from the
Start menu's "Run..." menu option), change to the directory you
installed the executables into, and run:
C:\test>svn co http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk svn
This will get the latest Subversion sources and put them into the
"svn" subdirectory.
If using a self-extracting .exe file, just run it instead of
unzipping it, to install Subversion.

I'm not competent to describe how to do a client-only build on
Windows. Can anyone else say how to do it? A patch to INSTALL would
be ideal; if not, a prose description on this list would still help.
Thanks,
