And PE is used on 32 and 64 bit Windows. So what you're saying is, we're running a 32 or 64 bit Windows binary executable. Is that what is being said now? My point remains (from the other trail of this thread) that a windows binary (which a PE would be, btw) has no place on Linux, for more reasons than because I hate MS (which I do, quite admittedly). > And btw. all Java executables are named *.class and all YaST script files > *.ycp --- do you want them to be renamed as well? .class is interpreted by the java vm, and ycp is handled by yast - so they aren't exactly the same type of situation. Unless you're saying its interpreted. So is Zen a compiled binary, or is it still interpreted by Mono? If its a compiled binary, then I still don't get wtf Mono is needed for. If its being interpreted, wtf is interpreted code doing in a core application? Please excuse my laziness in not looking more closely at the files myself, I have a very hectic week, and my weekend (while spent out of the office) was all but useless as far as rest and hobbies go. > Robert Joseph M.
