Hello to the list.
I am a biologist, a self-taught programmer and linux user. I tell you all this so you can frame your response appropriately. I have a research project that makes use of an algorithm implemented by the inventors and distributed as a COFF binary. All my attempts to get source code or an ELF binary have been ignored.
Is it still possible to run COFF binaries on a modern linux distro (I would prefer to use Fedora, out of familiarity and habit)? The last time I did this kind of thing was Redhat 7.2. Is anyone out there faced with a similar challenge?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
