icu required (brew install icu4c or apt-get install libicu-dev)

[Extdevelopment]

Hi,
I would like to install this https://github.com/osterman/copyright-header on Windows7.
Have you any solution for me?

I tried icu Binary Distribution  from https://ssl.icu-project.org/download/4.0.html
http://download.icu-project.org/files/icu4c/4.0.1/icu4c-4_0_1-Win32-msvc8.zip
But not helped.

Many thx.

Actually, that binary is build with msvc8 (Microsoft Visual C/C++)  and is almost certainly incompatible with our mingw build/DevKit.

You'll probably end up having to compile it with the DevKit  yourself or some mingw binary distributions may work.
