So this is just "normal" C, with no dependencies on the Windows API? Or
is this code that requires a substantial chunk of Windows to run?

When you say you need it to compile on Linux, is that to imply that you
need it to *run* on Linux?

If it's just compiling, then I heard a rumour that the "express" version
(the compiler, without the IDE) of VS worked on Wine.

If it's a case of turning your Windows app into a Linux app, winebuild
might be the place to start. It generates a Makefile that uses wineg++
et al to build and link your program against winelib. It may or may not
be able to do what you want, but it's worth a look. It's part of the
standard wine tree.

HTH,

James.
