This version of Pexpect requires Python 2.6 or 3.2 or above. For older
versions of Python, continue using Pexpect 2.4.
-Pexpect only works on POSIX systems, where the :mod:`pty` module
-is present in the standard library. It may be possible to run it on Windows
-using `Cygwin <http://www.cygwin.com/>`_.
+As of version 4.0, Pexpect can be used on Windows and POSIX systems. However,
+:class:`pexpect.spawn` and :func:`pexpect.run` are only available on POSIX,
+where the :mod:`pty` module is present in the standard library. See
+:ref:`windows` for more information.
