The download is a compressed tar source file and you will need an IDE including a C compiler, Yacc and Flex parser either under Linux or Cygwin. (see README) Some have had sucess using msys, Wingz, I had trouble installing that IDE.
After download: o make some_dir o cd some_dir o tar zxvf edif2kicad-2007-11-18.tgz o make o e2sch your_file.edf o eeschema your_file.sch I will try and get some Windoze .exe files released. -Frank
