Yeah, Windows is, from the application programmer's perspective, basically just a giant library. Wine is an implementation of that library on Linux.
so you can compile with "wine dmd", but can you test your software too?
Yeah, a lot of it. I still run it on the real Windows computer (just need to copy the exe for that, so much easier than copying all the dev files) too but usually it runs close enough to the same on wine that i can find big bugs there.
