No version of AllFix is designed to work under 'nix. The 16bit dos
version _may_ if a 'nix dos emulator s used, but as far as I recall, it was
never fully tested.
Way back when, there were plans for a 'nix version, but they got
forgotten when Harald sold the AllFix rights to Dale, who only seemed to
want to work on a win version. Since we've assumed ownership of the code,
the win- only concept has been dropped. After all there's _still_ dos
users out there!
With the support for the uni version being dropped by the LX-Power
people, I doubt if there'll ever be another uni version, but there should
be DOS, OS/2, and win versions separately available some day. And maybe a
'nix version.
