Office application is not a problem because there is OpenOffice, but my written application is still running in windows. it runs well under Wine, but the performance is not so good. i planned to re-write my application to native linux, but it will take some time (for me to learn how to write linux application). for temporary, i only want to patch up the existing application to run a little bit faster in Wine.

i strongly suggest you to write your app using the standard C library.
in some cases you have to use #ifdef s , esp when a func would usually
expect a unix permission mask for a file operation.
but after all. its a standard library.. and you will do good for your program
to use it. it might run on other platforms as well.
