This article explains how to setup a free compiler under Linux, under assumption, that Orbiter itself can be ran under Linux with Wine for testing your modules. Latest possible setup that is capable of doing it is [http://www.winehq.org Wine 1.6.2] and [http://www.orbiter-forum.com/download.php ORBITER 2010-P1], using the built-in DX7 graphical client and [http://orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?t=18431 DX9 client].

The concept is based on downloading and running MS VC++ executables, wrapped by [http://www.winehq.org Wine], and fed back to a native multiplatform IDE - [http://www.codeblocks.org/ Code::Blocks]. Thanks to [https://wiki.winehq.org/Winetricks winetricks], it's of course easy to download the VC++ executables, along with its IDE, and run the whole VC's IDE through Wine, but such a setup is unstable.

For some reason the WINEPREFIX didn't work on my box, therefore I needed to use the global .wine installation.
