I wish I could say that SegMan can be downloaded and run without  
difficulties in ACT-R 6 and any version of Windows, but we haven't  
had the funding to make the system bullet-proof.  In its current  
state, it's best viewed as a proof of concept.  (We're still using  
it, internally, but I think it's ripe for re-engineering.)  For  
Windows-specific interaction, Jan Misker's work might also be  
helpful; his system bypasses the kind of image processing that SegMan  
does in favor of direct access to Windows-internal objects.
