Whoa! Thanks for your effort to make this suite "run on Windows", kind of. I think gEDA is the best of the freely available EDAs, even if it seems immature in some respects: it tends to leave trails of pixels when moving parts around; Selecting and dragging parts sometimes yields unexpected results, e.g. corners which stay in their old location.
Anyway, with schematics captured with gEDA you will definitely have something more useable than ExpressPCB, because the schematics file format is pretty simple ASCII text and because there are so many output filters.
Meanwhile, because I wasn't totally happy with gEDA, I thought I start my own. The first thing I did was writing a part library editor (pedit) and I already have a lot of the commonly used parts. See screenshots.
When I'm finished with the parts used for e.g. Pong I'll write the schematics editor (probably sedit) and see to make it use a schematics format that can directly be loaded into the TTL emulation.
Both tools will just require SDL and as such should run on all platforms.
