RE: [Freeciv-Dev] Windows 95

["Todd Goodman" <tsg1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

M/IX doesn't work with Freeciv (it's reported to be only around X11R5 code
based).

Others have reported success with Starnet (http://www.starnet.com I think).
It's a one or two hour trial, but people claim you can restart it (check the
license please).
