    greetings, people way more intelligent than me!

    I've been following the DVD Authoring Tool thread, and I wanted to ask an incredibly stupid question - how difficult is it to port a program from *nix to Windows?

    just wondered if anyone has taken a look at Cinelerra with an eye toward porting it to Windows.

    I keep seeing lots of people looking for an inexpensive, yet robust editing program, and if this could be translated it would fit the bill.

    unfortunately, my last programming experience was in about 1983, rocking the "10 goto 20" in BASIC.

    thoughts? opinions? am I crazy?

    Command line tools are easy to port...but gui tools....i think it would require tons of work. Easier to dualboot and run linux....
