Please compile a Linux version, or at least provide some instructions for WINE, regarding how-to-map what/where for Basic4Android to use Linux Android SDK.
I've ran it in wine, and when it's *visible* it works just fine. The problem is closing it and opening it, or opening b4a files seems to make the code window completely disappear so you can't type. I didn't find a work around so far. I'm sure it's probably some dll that has to be configured to use native dll's vs built-in...
