Hello,

Yesterday, I downloaded 1.9.5 (executable for Windows). I wanted to check whether the bug #3335 (which makes the IDE unusable under Windows) had been fixed.

1) install.exe doesn't work. A windows is opened but it is immediately followed by a dialog box notifying that the program is about to be closed due to a 'general' error.

2) I unzipped all the files manually and tried to run fp.exe. A DOS windows is opened but it is immediately closed.

In short, it would seem that the snapshots are no more usable under Windows 98.

BTW, do you intend to release a stable beta soon (to replace the current 1.9.4)?
Thanks.

There is no intend to release a stable IDE since there is no maintainer for it.

I'll try to have a look at both bug 3335 and the current crash on start-up.
