Good; I will put all development stuff in
ftp://ftp.texmacs.org/pub/TeXmacs/dev
I am currently uploading texmacs.rar,
but this will probably take a few hours.

I only have a Windows 98 around, but I can ask whether there
is an accessible machine at my university with Windows 2000.
What is the probably that the program works with Windows 98 too?

No problem; I can put your files on texmacs.org. If you prefer,
we might also create a CVS project for porting TeXmacs to Windows
on Savannah.

It would probably be good to separate the MikTeX part from the rest:
MikTeX is very big in size and, hopefully, little changes will
be necessary in its installer soon. Also, I hope to implement TrueType
font support later this year, which would allow using TeXmacs without
TeX (if you don't need beautiful math fonts).

Well, it is already great that you have got something which works;
I will do my best to try it as soon as possible.
