Hi Theo...
Tanuki runs java programs as windows services, but it is not written in Java
itself. It's written in C. The guys over there haven't tried to port it to
Windows 64-bit yet, so there wasn't a lot of useful info there.
I was looking for a Microsoft group for programming on the 64-bit os, but
didn't see any other group specifically mentioning that.
Thanks
Mark
