    Hmm, maybe the question should be is there any feature that doesn't already exist or is added before its even asked?

    Shhhhh... it will spoil the surprise for the "port D'B to Linux" crowd.

    That sounds like a ton of work.

    Somehow im picturing a menu option under utilites again "port D'B to Linux"
    and when you hit it it asks you are you sure? you hit yes and it reboots your crappy windows box into linux and compiles DB in then after exporting all
    your windows settings and somehow implementing them back onto linux perfectly has a final note that then drops you to /home/usr/db4l and reports ok done hit DB to run DB.

    Eureka!

    Its been started but its the database code that is holding everything up and will likely require a serious rewrite to make it work on Linux. That code controls the Queue, the nodelist compiler and part of the scheduler.

    Actually more like the most challenging. Everything else is gravy compared to getting that code working.
