Please do!  It would be great to have AV-98 work on as many platforms aspossible.  I think this should be very possible, I've probably just beenlazy about path manipulations somewhere or something like that.

Hmm, well, it will, by default, try calling out to programs like `cat`and `less` which it may not find (although I understand there's a lotmore support for unix-like userspace in modern Windows?).  That shouldall be fixable with some calls to `handler` (which you can then stick inan rc file to make persistent).  Let me know if you have problems withany of this.
