Hi there,

other suggestion would be to create a virtual machine, install Windows on it and use it with Solar Fire.

VirtualBox (https://www.virtualbox.org/) is a free program and it works on Linux/Mac/OSX. I've been using it on my Linux Xubuntu host machine to run Windows as client.

The other alternative is to use native applications, such as Morinus (which is free).

I'm also working on an application which is cross-platform (you can read about it at http://skyscript.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=8458), but it is still not ready, so it is not a valid alternative, for now at least.. I'm developing it on a Mac, and cross testing it in Linux which are on my main machines, so people using other OSes (besides Windows) will soon have something to work with..
