I have uploaded the following files to SIMTEL20:

DVIMSWIN.ARC    TeX DVI previewer for Microsoft Windows

DVIMSWIN is a TeX .dvi previewer for Microsoft Windows. This is a full
Windows program with both mouse and keyboard interface and full device
independence. It does not, however, look too nice on screens like
CGA's with seriously non-square pixels.  It is OK on EGA's or
Hercules's, and is gorgeous on 600x800 or 768x1024 displays. It uses
the same fonts as dvivga.

Also, I would like you to do a minor tweak to the dvivgan.arc files
you already have. There are three font files inside dvivga1.arc.
They begin with numbers - 70.arc, 76.arc, and 84.arc. In order to
make getting the fonts for dvimswin independent of getting dvivga, 
I would appreciate it if you could move those three files from
dvivga1.arc to dvivga2.arc.

Thanks, Doug!  I have moved the three font files as you requested.
