************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Yep
You're free to port it to linux or any OS of your choice, tho.

You coded this in .net right? I'm not so sure that it's really that simple then... Or does a .net framework exist for linux as well? (I doubt that it's Microshit made tho
)

Done. I had completely overlooked that bug, as it looks like it's a product of some last minute changes I made to the program before release yesterday. I'll have the package updated as soon as I can get hold of the webmaster.

I heard some talk about .NET being supported in Linux a couple of years ago. But I haven't explored wheter it's true. Though I guess it would be a good strategy for Microsoft to market the .NET cross platforms. After all, that IS supposed to be one of it's key features

Yup, it does seem to exist, a quick google turned up Mono and DotGNU (mono would be the more used I think)

I haven't seen anything that MS has made that would run on Linux (please correct me if I'm wrong) and the general attitude of MS when it comes to Linux seems to be that they exclude it from everything that they just possibly can. Linux, after all, is their biggest competition... I say they are scared

Yes, they'll probably never make anything _explicitly_ run on any Linux platform. But with .NET, they've made it so that Linux might adopt it, if they so wish. With .NET, this isn't such a bad thing. MS controls the development of it, and they would gain users in the linux base as well.
But of course, MS (or the Vole, as some say) would never allow Linux to use any of their products unless there's something in it for Gates. At the moment, they really need more people to start using .NET.
Oh, and they should be scared. They're losing their monopoly

The problem is of course that yes, it would be great for developers if there was a fast an portable (java is portable, but speed is an issue sometimes) framework. However, since this would also mean that Linux users could start using many of the new apps originally developed for win32 systems, it would be "easier" to make the change to Linux and stop paying "the man" all together for using Windows
Anyway... Novell is (apparently) leading the development of Mono, and it's said to be able to run .NET applications.
I have no idea as to how this would work tho, does .NET compile into a .exe file, or does it use some other format? Would it be neccessary to recompile the code on a linux machine? I'm downloading Mono right now....
If you (or anyone else) wants to take a look at it, I found it
here. They have binaries for Linux, Windows, and Mac

Just as an update... Mono wasn't able to run serverbrowser, since it Mono apparently supports v. 1.1 of .NET and serverbrowser is written in 2.0. So if you find 1.1 .NET programs that you want to run in linux you know what to use

I wasn't even able to start an easy .NET compiled .exe with Mono... I don't think, even Novell says opposite, that Mono has ANY use for Linux ppl.
My hint: Code portable, not using C#, but using real cross-plattform-languages. As to speak of perl, ruby, java (has at least a native framework for Linux), C, C++...
It's not that you can count on Mono that C# compiled .exe-cutables will run. So, fuck it?!

Are you sure you did it right?
I haven't even tried to run anything else than this prog, but I saw several screenshots of programs being run with Mono on the site, and I also remember an article from MikroBitti (Finlands leading PC magazine) where they discussed .NET and the possibility of running the programs using Mono...
Could it be that you were missing some needed packages?
