Cygwin is not Linux, but I think I get what you mean.  I was unhappy
about us doing any development on Windows at all. ;-)

Sounds fine.

Yes.  Do you have specific questions?

The interface is described in formats.h, and you may look at dummy.c for
a sample.  If anything specific is unclear, please ask.  If you don't
have specific questions yet don't have an understanding of how this
works in general, this will be much harder to explain - yet I'll try to
(maybe via IM).  Please let me know either way.

Thanks,

Alexander
