If this is the same outfit that makes CrossOver Office (for Linux), I
don't think so. I tried to run Xy on that on Linux, and no go. For an
interesting reason: CrossOver Office starts out by installing your
Windows app. So it wants an install routine--typically, SETUP.EXE. Xy
has no such thing, and if you point CrossOver Office at EDITOR.EXE, it
has no idea what to do.
