I guess those are two different discussions :-)
While Bat can probably be compiled for windows - and, as far as I
know, this is being worked on - the developers will surely be glad
about any help with a windows port. Bat on windows needs a lot of work
before being stable (that's what I understand from the -devel list).
Running Bat on a unix/linux machine and presenting the application on
a windows desktop X11 display is possible today, without any
additional instability. Actually, it's what I recommend to my
customers :-)
