Trouble compiling nimcrypt.nim

[bv-WoS]

Having trouble compiling the nimcrypt.nim. I followed the steps from the README.md for installation but I run issue with the following step.

└─$ nim c -d=release --cc:gcc --embedsrc=on --hints=on --app=console --cpu=amd64 --out=nimcrypt nimcrypt.nim

Sorry if this is a basic question, I'm fairly new to nim and not versed with how to correct the compilation errors.
