I was reported some weeks ago that Cygwin (in Windows 8) can run Ponysay (minor bug fix in the setup has recently be made so the user of cygwin that do not have python2 install need to fix it), additionally it is also said to work one Mac OS X.

Ponysay is told to be running on Mac OS X, which is Unix-like OS meaning that probably
all future version of ponysay will be able to run without any problems.

Ponysay is also reported to be able to run on Windows 8 through Cygwin, provided that
@code{python3} is installed. It will probabily also run one any other version of Windows
through Cygwin. Additionally among the preinstalled fonts in Windows 8; Consolas 10pt,
and larger, can be used for almost perfect ponies (they may be just a little distorted
on the height), however Consolas is only able print the ASCII based balloons.
