Actually I hadn't thought of the fact that you could
link a windows program agains winelib to create a
native linux executable, but it makes perfect sense.
Corel might still need a few ifdef's to work around

been answered down in another thread. :)

I wonder if Corel will allow this... and I wonder why I should use a system
