Since the author of UIView died and development stopped in 2004, and since UIView has issues with every version of Windows after XP, it wouldn't be the one I would try first. Certainly not the only one I would try. Took me less than 5 minutes to make it work with xastir. And there are about a hundred blog posts and videos about how to make it work with many programs and OSes. But that would require the use of Google.
