As I sit here waiting for another Windows update for our MVS Toolkit, I wonder again, and I do mean again, why there is no Linux version for this part of the tool. We stopped using MS Windows over 20 years ago, but had to go and get a licence and set up vm server to run Windows so that we could interface with the web. Where have all our problems been? On the Windows server. Now if there was a Linux version available, we may have had to set up a vm anyway, but it would have worked a lot better and saved a lot of technician time.

You’re talking about the client IDE only, correct? There is a Linux Toolkit server. A lot of Linux-centric users will install the Toolkit server on Linux, then install the Toolkit client only on somebody’s Windows 10 or 11 laptop, or a Windows instance running inside of a Mac.
Back when the Toolkit was first released, there was a Linux-based client IDE, but it was hard to use and was eventually dropped because of the problems. I don’t remember exactly what brought us to the decision to drop the client portion of the Linux Toolkit, but I could go find out if you’re curious.
