################
WINDOWS USERS #
#################

LinHerp was built on and designed for Linux. However, it should theoretically run on Windows provided you have ActivePerl, SQLite3, and the required Perl modules above installed on your system. Your mileage will/may vary when it comes to printing reports/caresheets and reading saved reports/caresheets.

The only testing I've done thus far is on Windows XP using Cygwin. Using that setup it ran perfectly.

If you are able to make it work, I would love to hear from you and how you did it so that I may include packages for Windows in the next release.
