#92 MacOS and Linux versions
Please create a native MacOS and native Linux version of this app. This app is amazing and I would like to be able to use it on other desktop operating systems naively and to be able to have my family and friend easily install and use this software on MacOS.
Maybe consider using QT or GTK as the GUI?
It would not be a trivial task unfortunately. There is a lot of low level Windows code in FO, aka non-portable code for performance reasons. But the worse is that not all plugins are available under Linux or MacOS. So your best bet is running Wine, indeed I eventually use it under Wine.
Regarding the GUI toolkit I would recommend Firemonkey (FMX) since is the natural portable version of VCL.
