Oh ye Ms-Windows gurus...

We got a rather cute program (well...) some time ago for our X workstations.
Xneko produces a small window with a even smaller kitten inside.  When you
move your cursor over the window area, it turns into a mouse and the kitten
of course chases it.  Oneko is about the same, but the kitten is free on the
desktop... it'll chase the mouse until it catches up with it, then lick itself
for a while and then fall asleep.  A very nice (and funny) demo all in all.

Would some Windows3 guru like to port it over, the sources for oneko are
available in ~ftp/pub/X/oneko.tar.Z under anon.ftp at jyu.fi [128.214.7.5] ?
They consist mostly of the bitmasks for the kitten.  The documents are all
kanji, though :-(
