 At a minimum, you should *read* the documentation; pkfix-helper usage
 is neither completely automatic nor completely intuitive.
 
-As the pkfix README states, "I have only tested with a few test files
-on a Linux machine with teTeX."  The same is true for pkfix-helper.
-In particular, I don't know what needs to be done to get pkfix-helper
-to work under Windows.  If you're a Windows user, you're on your own.
-Sorry.  Maybe try Cygwin (http://www.cygwin.com/)?
