Dear Maude Abusers, In response to a query from Paco, it is possible to use recent Maude alpha releases under MS Windows 95/98/2000 and probably XP using the following technique (slightly adapted from the method of Francisco Bellomi ): (1) Copy the 7 files in: http://www.csl.sri.com/~eker/Maude/Windoze/ to a folder on your windows box; say C:\Program Files\Maude\ (2) Copy maude.linux, prelude.maude and any other .maude files (such as model-checker.maude) to the same folder. (3) Add the following line to the end of prelude.maude: set show timing off . (4) Double click on maude.bat to start Maude. Timing does not work and the date/time printed on start up will probably be wrong. Everything else should work. Steven
