Scripting pulling FM files from version control and creating PDFs

[Shmuel Wolfson]

It says on the page you provided below:

DZbatcher is currently available for Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Sun 
Solaris 2.6 and AIX, and FrameMaker or FrameMaker+SGML (versions 5.5.6 
or above), must be installed on your host system.

What about Windows XP and Vista? Are they supported?
Also, is it easy to use?

Regards,
Shmuel Wolfson
