Windows support was dropped due to lack of interest a few versions ago,
although the Windows-based networking code was kept in for a little later,
when we plan to make a GTK+ front-end for the emulator.  Since there is a GTK+
port to Windows, we should be able to get it working (and full-featured)
this time around - and not require much additional maintenance.

Until then, I would see if you can compile it with the CygWin32 toolkit, or
find a port of S/Lang to Windows (there is supposed to be one).  For the
terminal interface either S/Lang or GNU curses is required.

If interested, CygWin is at http://www.cygnus.org
