Yes, I have a copy that I installed some time ago now, on one of my old 
PC's, under WIN95.  Although it can be run on Windows NT and XP, 
following the instructions supplied.

It should be worth including, on the QL On a Stick, if you can get it 
fully working.

The version that I have is numbered as V.0.1a

It starts with a batch file - see below - which starts an X-Window on 
Windows for uqlx, however it drops out with an error for me ... "mount 
point - no such file or directory" does anyone have any ideas as to why 
?

Note - You need to get the Cygwin off the internet, or elsewhere.
At the time I did it the source was at :
http://sources/redhat.com/cygwin/

[ Batch file > uqlx.bat ]

@echo off
@echo uqlx.bat - Starting uQLx on Windows
@echo V.0.1a - Phoebus R. Dokos
@echo

SET DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0

REM Startup the X Server with the integrated Windows-based window 
manager

start XWin -fullscreen -trayicon

REM Try X Server in fullscreen mode for speedup or if you have color 
problems

REM start XWin -fullscreen -depth 16

REM Startup uQLx

start qm.exe -f .uqlxrc


[ Start file > .uqlxrc ( see line above ) - This has to be modified to 
suit the users own set up ]

DEVICE = RAM6,tmp/.ram6-%x,clean,qdos-like
DEVICE = RAM7,tmp/.ram7-%x,clean,qdos-like
DEVICE = RAM8,/tmp/.ram8-%x,clean,qdos-like

I have altered the line :

DEVICE = DOS2,c:/Docume~1/

To be where uqlx is located on my machine :

DEVICE = DOS1,c:/uqlx/
