Yes, but with egcs. Use the Linux version. But there is no windows driver. I am working on one by remodeling the pgxwin_server model. But no promise when it will be ready. I am absolutely new to the win32 API and work on it only if I feel like it. So think of it in terms of weeks or a month or two. I've got bits and pieces together but nothing more. What does work is postscript. GIF works mostly, seems a simple problem with writing binary files. I haven't tracked that down but seems simple. I would expect the X11 stuff to work if you have a real X11 distribution. There is a win32 emulation xlibnt or something like this (comes with rxvt) but that is insufficient. For real X11 you will need a X11 server, though.
