1) Do you have the source code?
2) Does it require a graphical user interface?
3) What language is it written in?
If the answers are yes, no, and something reasonable, then it might not be a big task for someone to port it. And then the problem is solved properly and you don't have to spend time on all the other complicated issues of running multiple operating systems.
1.Yes
2. No
3. C++
Not a big task!???!!!! That's the first thing I thought of. Certainly not for someone who knows what to what they ae be doing. Unfortunately, that someone is not me. My first programming experience was in FORTRAN II in the early 1960's as a grad student and I can bumble my way, with a lot of help, in Python and bash scripting. I tried but was not successful. Are you volunteering?
