Possibly not since cocoafibs is rather new, but wouldn't the requirements be listed where you download it?

When I was using win98 I used BBGT interface.  It's not bad but has a few bugs.

Erm, you have windows98 on your mac??  :wacko:

I think the answer is no - this was a new interface designed for those using macs - since plenty were available for windows machines, whilst the mac had only the now unsupported macfibs.
Javafibs will run in windows 98 as long as you get the required programs from the java site - Java 2 (1.3.0 or higher) - follow this link for posts on what is needed.
java 1.4.2_08 (http://www.fibsboard.com/index.php?showtopic=965&view=findpost&p=8378)
