After about a month of using Bazaar to version my scripts and config
files on my Linux box I thought it might be a good idea to use it for
my Windows docs too. On Linux using Bazaar was a real breeze and a
great experience. But Bazaar isn't really written for Windows systems,
is it?

What's the best way to go about it on Windows?  I hardly do any coding
in WinXP but was intending to use Bazaar to version Word and
Powerpoint docs. I saw there were a couple of plugins ( Tortoisebzr  /
Olive) etc. but many seemed in development versions. Besides the WinXP
"command line" (if I may use the term!) is sort of iffy; so I probably
should be using a GUI, right?

Do people have suggestions / pitfalls I should be aware of? Or is it
wise to stay away from Bazaar on Windows entirely.
