Certainly for the files that can't be opened. For the dvi files that
exists and are being written by tex, it might be harder. 

Ob news : most of the binaries for a fptex-0.4 are ok. There remains
very few things (like allowing dvips to print on a ps printer) I'd
like to tackle for this round apart for windvi, fpsetup and
texconfig. I'm cleaning up patches for src-specials thanks to Stephan
Ulrich and I will release a first set of binaries (0.4beta1). Next
I'll go on on fpsetup and texconfig. Next some additions to windvi.
