A native Linux version of Purple Pen in the near future is highly unlikely. I have investigated this in detail and the technical work to get Purple Pen running on Linux is very high.

However, Purple Pen runs well under the Virtual Box virtualization software. I have written up a document that describes how to get this set up. See http://purple-pen.org/virtualbox.htm

Any news about purplepen in Linux? Does anyone use it with an emulator or sth similar?

I wonder if that means migration to Mono or a rewrite into another cross-platform framework.

Would be appreciated.

While the installer runs seamlessly under WINE, the executable hangs up at start due to the missing .Net
