German wikipedia says: Gnash Windows port is still incomplete & buggy.

Quote
Gnash README
"There are ports of the standalone player to Darwin and Win32."

I have downloaded and checked/searched for plugin.
I have found no np*.dll or np*.*.

Why? All Netscape/Mozilla start with these letters.
So no Netscape plugin for Windows/K-Meleon.

Quote
Gnash README
"See the generic installation instructions in the file called "INSTALL"."

I searched file "INSTALL". I have found no "INSTALL".

Gnash README

IRC:
* #gnash on irc.freenode.net The #gnash channel on irc.freenode.net is
where many of the developers hang out.

If you would like a new feature to be included in future versions of
Gnash, please send a request to <gnash-dev@gnu.org>. You can also
submit patches at https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?group=gnash.

Please remember that development of Gnash is a volunteer effort.
You can contribute to its development. The Gnash project would like to
find volunteers to focus on win32 and Darwin support, as well as help
us fill in missing functionality. Offers of help can be sent to
<gnash-dev@gnu.org>.

Maybe ask them to supply Windows install info and plugin.
