> I have been working on setting up a good working environment for my LEAF work, which primarily involves sh-httpd and Weblet, VMWare is an option if I move to 1.44 disks and change a few things (haven’t tried it yet).

I use cygwin, but haven't tried using it with sh-httpd. Cygwin is basically a unix shell environment for windows, including the familiar bash shell, and most common unix/gnu utilities (from sed & grep to gcc). The problem with running sh-httpd in this environment is sh-httpd needs to be launched by inetd, the internet service "super daemon". I'm not sure if there's an easy way to do this from within windows (even using cygwin)...if you figure something out, let us know. Of course you could always do something like: cat /path/myhtmlquery | sh-httpd >response.html which while handy when debugging sh-httpd, is not too useful when trying to play with weblet pages (actually loading it up in a browser is a *MUCH* easier way to debug web content).
