I don't know the details, but I downloaded `es.exe' (53 KB) from
http://www.voidtools.com/download.php, months ago: apparently, in December
2010 if I can trust the modification date on my file system -- this seems just
right, btw.
It does seem to me to be a pure Win32 application, but maybe you know how to
know more?

I'll let Thierry comment on this...
