In theory it should work.  But I haven't got a Windows box to test on,
so it's quite possible that there are som unixy assumptions that break
on Windows.

Hmm, this suggests that final step in the conversion doesn't work --
i.e. converting '1.ps' to the png file '1' with Ghostscript.

Is Ghostscript in your path?  Does it help to set `imaxima-gs-program'
to the absolute file name of the Ghostscript executable?

Also, which version of Ghostscript do you have?
