Updated Solidity documentation's "building from source" section.

It now references install_deps.sh/.bat, and also adds instructions for Windows.
Cherry picked some further tweaks from Denton-L.  Thanks :-)

 Building from Source
 ====================
 
-Building Solidity is quite similar on MacOS X, Ubuntu and probably other Unices.
+Clone the Repository
-This guide starts explaining how to install the dependencies for each platform
+--------------------
-and then shows how to build Solidity itself.
 
-MacOS X
+To clone the source code, execute the following command:
--------
 
-
+.. code:: bash
-Requirements:
-
-- OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
-- Homebrew
-- Xcode
-
-Set up Homebrew:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-    brew update
-    brew upgrade
-
-    brew install boost --c++11             # this takes a while
-    brew install cmake cryptopp gmp jsoncpp
-
-Ubuntu Trusty (14.04)
----------------------
-
-Below are the instructions to install the minimal dependencies required
-to compile Solidity on Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr).
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-    sudo apt-get -y install build-essential git cmake libgmp-dev libboost-all-dev \
-        libjsoncpp-dev
-
-    sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:ethereum/ethereum
-    sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:ethereum/ethereum-dev
-    sudo apt-get -y update
-    sudo apt-get -y upgrade # this will update cmake to version 3.x
-    sudo apt-get -y install libcryptopp-dev libjsoncpp-dev
-
-Ubuntu Xenial (16.04)
----------------------
-
-Below are the instructions to install the minimal dependencies required
-to compile Solidity on Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus).
-
-One of the dependencies (Crypto++ Library, with version >= 5.6.2) can be
-installed either by adding the Ethereum PPA (Option 1) or by backporting
-``libcrypto++`` from Ubuntu Development to Ubuntu Xenial (Option 2).
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-    sudo apt-get -y install build-essential git cmake libgmp-dev libboost-all-dev \
-        libjsoncpp-dev
-
-    # (Option 1) For those willing to add the Ethereum PPA:
-    sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:ethereum/ethereum
-    sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:ethereum/ethereum-dev
-    sudo apt-get -y update
-    sudo apt-get -y upgrade
-    sudo apt-get -y install libcryptopp-dev
-
-    ## (Option 2) For those willing to backport libcrypto++:
-    #sudo apt-get -y install ubuntu-dev-tools
-    #sudo pbuilder create
-    #mkdir ubuntu
-    #cd ubuntu
-    #backportpackage --workdir=. --build --dont-sign libcrypto++
-    #sudo dpkg -i buildresult/libcrypto++6_*.deb buildresult/libcrypto++-dev_*.deb
-    #cd ..
-
-Building
---------
-
-Run this if you plan on installing Solidity only:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
 
     git clone --recursive https://github.com/ethereum/solidity.git
     cd solidity
-    mkdir build
-    cd build
-    cmake .. && make
 
 If you want to help developing Solidity,
 you should fork Solidity and add your personal fork as a second remote:
 
-.. code-block:: bash
+.. code:: bash
 
     cd solidity
-    git remote add personal git@github.com:username/solidity.git
+    git remote add personal git@github.com:[username]/solidity.git
+
+
+Prerequisites - macOS
+----------------------
+
+For macOS, ensure that you have the latest version of
+`xcode installed <https://developer.apple.com/xcode/download/>`_.
+This contains the `Clang C++ compiler <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clang>`_, the
+`xcode IDE <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xcode>`_ and other Apple development
+tools which are required for building C++ applications on OS X.
+If you are installing xcode for the first time, or have just installed a new
+version then you will need to agree to the license before you can do
+command-line builds:
+
+.. code:: bash
+
+    sudo xcodebuild -license accept
+
+Our OS X builds require you to `install the Homebrew <http://brew.sh>`_
+package manager for installing external dependencies.
+Here's how to `uninstall Homebrew
+<https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/blob/master/share/doc/homebrew/FAQ.md#how-do-i-uninstall-homebrew>`_,
+if you ever want to start again from scratch.
+
+
+Prerequisites - Windows
+------------------------
+
+You will need to install the following dependencies for Windows builds of Solidity:
+
++------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------+
+| Software                     | Notes                                                 |
++==============================+=======================================================+
+| `Git for Windows`_           | Command-line tool for retrieving source from Github.  |
++------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------+
+| `CMake`_                     | Cross-platform build file generator.                  |
++------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------+
+| `Visual Studio 2015`_        | C++ compiler and dev environment.                     |
++------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------+
+
+.. _Git for Windows: https://git-scm.com/download/win
+.. _CMake: https://cmake.org/download/
+.. _Visual Studio 2015: https://www.visualstudio.com/products/vs-2015-product-editions
+
+
+External Dependencies
+---------------------
+
+We now have a "one button" script which installs all required external dependencies
+on macOS, Windows and on numerous Linux distros.  This used to be a multi-step
+manual process, but is now a one-liner:
+
+.. code:: bash
+
+    ./scripts/install_deps.sh
+
+Or, on Windows:
+
+.. code:: bash
+
+    scripts\install_deps.bat
+
+
+Command-Line Build
+------------------
+
+Building Solidity is quite similar on Linux, macOS and other Unices:
+
+.. code:: bash
+
+    mkdir build
+    cd build
+    cmake .. && make
+
+And even on Windows:
+
+.. code:: bash
+
+    mkdir build
+    cd build
+    cmake -G "Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64" ..
+
+This latter set of instructions should result in the creation of
+**solidity.sln** in that build directory.  Double-clicking on that file
+should result in Visual Studio firing up.  We suggest building
+**RelWithDebugInfo** configuration, but all others work.
+
+Alternatively, you can build for Windows on the command-line, like so:
+
+.. code:: bash
+
+    cmake --build . --config RelWithDebInfo
