Bmp2cnc.exe has been compiled using DJGPP, which is a DOS port of the GCC C
compiler. As you can see from the source code, bmp2cnc is a very "plain
vanilla" command line program. It does work on Win95 & 98 (I've done these
two myself), but I've heard that there are some problems with legacy DOS
programs on XP. The thing is, I can't imagine that something as simple as
bmp2cnc would fall into the catagory of those "problem" programs! I say this
because it pulls in almost no library routines, and there aren't any
graphics.

What error message do you get when you run it?

Anyone else tried it on XP? Other Windows versions?
