Java Swing App

[Garrett Serack]

Is the software completely written in Java? If so, you don't need to
recompile the Java app to work with Java under Linux.

Java apps run unmodified under linux, most of the time (well they are
supposed to at any rate ;)

Is the Java app distributed as a JAR file, or an exe (which bootstraps
the java process). A bit more information may find a way to get it to
run without involving Wine. 

What app is it? (that may help too ;)

I agree.  However, this is a commercial application, and I don't have
the source code.  That makes porting the native version to Linux a bit
more difficult.

Thanks for the suggestion, though.
