-Since the 2007-05-25 version, Kicad (which uses unicode strings) can run under W98,
-if the library unicows.dll is found by kicad.
-
-If you want to use kicad you must download unicows.dll,
-and copy it in Windows or kicad/winexe directory.
-Because many others programs use unicows.dll, this can be already done.
-
-But kicad is NOT tested under W98.
-A known problem is incorrect printing
-(However, you can plot a postscript file, and use gsview to show and print it)
