Xpostulate working on Win7

[tonybaldwin]

So, I currently have acces to a Win7 machine (you will recall that I'm a gnu/linux guy), and I've managed to get Xpostulate running on this platform.

Windows annoys the heck out of me, frankly, and I did have to make various changes to the program to make it work, but I have it working, and am posting this, now, with Xpostulate on said Win7 machine.

I will zip up a package for Windows users shortly, with installation instructions, etc., and post again.

and windows is s0oooo slo00www....
I have run debian on the same box. it boots about 5 times faster, and stuff stars about 5 to 10 times faster.
And I've installed a lot of FLOSS programs on the Win7, so I'm talking about the very same programs, in many cases, like LibreOffce, or VLC, Scribus, etc.
Windows is a bloated, inefficient mess.

All true, all true. I see the exact same happen on my machines. The difference in LibreOffice starts is scary.
And then to think that Linux starts a truckload of servers that winblows doesn't even have.
