RE: [Freeciv] Display

["Hupf, Robert" <rhupf@xxxxxxxxx>]

I don't think I made myself clear.  The freeciv program is an "X Windows"
program.  Windows 98 does not have an X Windows server.  You have to have
another program to provide that.  I use a program called Reflections, but
there are others.  I don't know if there are any that are shareware or
freeware though.
