Of course it should also work on Windows 95, 98, etc.

I've compiled up a version, but can't test it on a real Windows box.  I've
tried it under wine (the windows emulator) and it didn't work, but wine
warned about various unsupported stuff being used so this probably doesn't
mean much.

So if you've got a windows box, could you try this out.  Please make sure
you don't have any unsaved work, as there's an outside chance it might crash
the machine:

Run it from the command line (or the "Run" dialog box) as with the DOS
version, and it should create a full screen directx display with the usual
DOS caverot interface.

Please let me know whether it works or not, and what version of windows
you're using.

Cheers,
