[Coco] any solution to use drivewire 4 on windows 10 64bits ?

[Bill Pierce]

The "Developer's Edition" of DriveWire4 (4.3.4e) seems to work fine with Win 10 64 bit. It was a "never officially released" version Aaron sent to a few of us back when it was still being developed. It's available on my website.
It is a little different, mainly the GUI, but has all the same functionality.

I agree PyDriveWire is the way to go if you are serving to a real coco 
as the Java version of drive wire is no longer supported where as 
PyDriveWire is being actively developed and there documentation is very 
good.

I have some Pi's with Java held back
ruining the Java version of DriveWire but have moved on to
PyDriveWire for my PC's as holding them back would have security
Issues. PyDriveWire has a steeper learning curve I still am having
no luck getting it working with the emulator but others have.
