No discouragement here at all... I've got a user base in the tens of 
thousands and I'm acting on popular requests.    But I agree that if 
you're set in your ways with your current development environment, 
then that's what you should use.  I'm not trying to push anything on 
you at all.

There have been a great deal of requests to *port* Rainbow over to 
Linux, and the ONLY way that can be done is by using the Wine API in 
a recompile.  It's simply a translator and if people are used to 
keeping a clean system then that's what they will have under Linux or 
Windows.  Rainbow is known for being completely safe as you can see 
from some of the award banners on the home page.

Thanks for the feedback
