In my experience Fronimo cannot work "directly" on a Linux platform
using Wine. But an alternative way to make it work is to install in
your Linux a Virtual Machine that let you run Windows: first thing to
do is creating a Windows Virtual Machine. Second step is to install and
run FRONIMO as normal. This is not a 100%"pure" Linux solution but it
works well, printing procedures etc. included. Hope this can help.

I agree. I would buy Fronimo if it worked properly under Linux.
I had trouble in the demo version. Printing to file didn't work
(blank
pages though the preview is visible. Is this deliberate?).
That's sad because I have some fronimo files from the yahoo group I
would have loved to print.
Also I would love to contribute to Sarge's archive.
