Ah - yes of course, I left it out here, since it currently is "win only" (written in PowerBasic). Already played around with it some months ago - not bad. And IIRC, there was also a C-port planned regarding the sources - which would allow to compile and run it natively on more target-platforms. But yes, the Wine-Layer runs very well these days, especially if only service-like apps are hosted (with a minimal GUI). The translation of the winsock-api into the *nix-socket-stack works very reliable over long uptime-periods, as well as the mappings and translations into the *nix-filesystems (and all that with much better performance, compared with VM-based approaches ... which would also require appropriate Win-OS-licenses per VM). So, hosting such "IO-related services", originally developed for win (mainly because "also the clientside has to run on that platform") on *nix-servers (with a little help of the wine-layer) is now possible without much hazzle - we do it this way for a few years now, running our win-compiled service-binaries/layers on debian/wine- machines.
