If one wants to use a bloated, buggy, slow "managed" solution use Java.
At least it has some cross platform capability and is still well
supported by Boralnd. (They are making the entry level version of
JBuilder available for commercial rather than personal only use again.)

Of course not. But supposedly it would be easier than converting it to
either of designer + gcc or vi & gcc.
Then use lazarus+lcl. Not perfect, but not from scratch either, and the

linux support is not a phantom.

called "iFolder3"
Roaming desktop dir based on filesharing. One 1MB csharp code.

Hardly a "solution" comparable to Kylix or VCL.NET frameworks.
Such utils are writable in pretty much everything.
Moreover, it uses gtk#, not winforms.

That is what I wanted to point out with that. Maybe Chrome comes into

the play, too.
