Ok, got a chance to attempt throwing a few commands at it, each command causes a crash so not sure what is up with it. I am using the bitcoind commands (I assume they work). Here are the ones I was trying:

devcoind getblockcount
devcoind getdifficulty

and a bunch of the others listed on https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Original_Bitcoin_client/API_calls_list

Each time I get devcoind.exe has stopped working. So either I am doing it wrong or theres a glitch?
i think a BT dosnt exist on winblows? gonna try it out in a VM to check it.
maybe devcoind really dosnt work on winblows alltogether Sad

EDIT: confirmed, happens to me too.

For windows users to install devcoind.exe

1.Download http://www.darkgamex.ch/devcoin/devcoind-Windows.zip
2.Unzip to C:\Users\WHATEVERYOURLOGINIS\AppData\Roaming\Devcoin
3.Create a new text file then change it to the name of devcoin.conf (NOT devcoin.conf.txt)
4.Open the devcoin.conf and paste this in

Code:
server=1
daemon=1
rpcuser=USERNAME
rpcpassword=PASSWORD
rpcport=6333
port=6334

5.Save the file.
6.Go to http://92.105.105.155/devcoin/ and download all of the .csv files to C:\Users\WHATEVERYOURLOGINIS\AppData\Roaming\Devcoin
7.Once they are in the folder (all of them) you can click devcoind.exe to run it or use the command line from the start menu (type in the box CMD to get to it).
8. In cmd type

Code:
cd\
cd users
cd whateveryourloginis
cd appdata
cd roaming
cd devcoin
devcoind.exe

9. This will cause the program to download the blockchain. Once complete you can use devcoind.

Alright it finished according to the debug log. Once it finishes the download, will it then free up the cursor for me to input commands?

No, you are supposed to open another command window and run commands in it. E.g. devcoind will send that command to a running server instance (which occupies your first console).

64 bit here.
awesome, would be great to have it with 32 bit tested aswell
the binary is x86, therefore if it works on x64 it works on x86 too

I will hop on my mining rig its 32bit and check it later.

I think I figured it out, the download is running now, so waiting for it to finish to test it.

do you use a 32 or 64 bit os?

Ok, got the receiver files, now I get:

Number of pages in getCommonOutputByText: 1
Insufficient identical pages in getCommonOutputBytext.
Cound not get page : http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=u51edxd0
Exception: connect:  A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond

Please place all .csv  files from http://92.105.105.155/devcoin/  in the receiver folder in your ./devcoin or C:\Users\jasinlee\AppData\Roaming\Devcoin\devcoin.conf and restart devcoind.exe
Make sure that the ending of the devcoin.conf is realy .conf and not .txt and that you have daemon=1 set in the file.

if it dosnt go away, clean ur .devcoin directory (leave the receiver files and conf there) and start from scratch, if it shows up again just wait, it will go away.

And with that I get

Downloading receiver_0.csv base file.
Could not get the page: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=DB1dyxuU
Exception: connect: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond
Warning, writeFileText in receiver.h wont write the file: receiver_0.csv because the text is blank.
No coin addresses were found, there may be something wrong with receiver_x.csv files.
perfect, devcoind.exe working!
you have to get the receiver files and put em in the folder too!
get em here: http://92.105.105.155/devcoin/
