None that I'm aware of. In theory, there's nothing to stop you from
porting the code to Windows. It's mostly pretty portable, and IIRC Windows
has a Posix compatibility layer (not sure how good it is) now anyhow. The
tough part will be redoing all of the shell scripts in a Windows scripting
language (or installing the Unix tools on the Windows machine), and
replacing the calls to at with hooks into the Windows task scheduler.

Or get a cheap PC and install Linux on it -- it's really not so hard.

Can anyone recommend a good Linux-based Judge software?

Thanks,
Terry

What do you need it to do? If you want to run a server and host games,
there's Njudge. If you just want an ajudicator for yourself, there's jDip.

You can find more info on Njudge at http://www.njudge.org and on jDip and
http://jdip.sourceforge.net .

Do you want something that adjudicates the moves or something
with a email server.

If you look for the first, the best you can do is to take a
Java based program. I think JDip is the best candidate for that.

If you look for the second, just try njudge.
