This is a really wonderful piece of software.
Most Delphi and Win32 API apps run without a hitch, and developing under wine with mingw seems to go faster than using MS Visual Studio on Windows.
- marktangotango 9y agoCan you explain your workflow here? Do you cross compile to w32 on Linux and run the resulting exe on wine? In what ways is development faster?
- jstewartmobile 9y agoOn linux, just use the mingw c/c++ compiler and run/debug under wine. When it's time to run under windows, I compile under cygwin's mingw, and that usually just works. I'll edit later today when I get a chance and post my makefiles / compiler opts to github.

If you need clarifications, just post a comment there. As for faster, VS2017 takes minutes to load on my machine (which is fairly beefy BTW). Even back when VS was fast, I could still work faster with the old userland progs like vim, grep, make, etc...
