>From a post to SLUG by Ben Buxton:
"Actually, GE has been ported natively rather than using wine.
The win32 version used QT and other cross platform libraries, so
it made sense to use those natively in linux too.
The guy in charge of porting it isn't a big wine fan and used to
work for Loki who made native linux ports of games."
