Re: VFP - Linux?

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I have used Wine recently and found that it works as expected. Foxpro 2.6,
VFP6, VFP7, VFP8 and VFP9 all work on Linux with Wine.
The main trick is "will my current application that works well in Windows
work on Linux". Remember that Linux knows nothing about Activex, and Windows
Fonts, and registry etc....Does Linux support COM of any kind?

My question was primarily technical - not legal. Wine seems to be an
alternative. Anyone that knows any other options to use a Foxpro exe com
server in Linux?
