[Koha] KOHA 3 ON WINDOWS

[rafael.antonio at sapo.pt]

Dear all,

I can understand expectations about Windows but you can not forget  
that it will always behind the latest LINUX release.
Download VMWARE server.
Install a Virtual Machine with SUse or Debian and KOHA. Add SAMBA server too.
After that you can run and copy that virtual machine for other  
computer if you need.
Use Windows Explorer to view all files (translation, templates, etc.)  
through SAMBA
Install a SQL client (SQLYog) to access MYSQL database.
Use a text editor to manage file content (Notepad++) or Texpad  
(Commercial but very powerful).
Even if you need support it is a one time shot and will be for future.
Regards,

Rafael Antonio
