No. Only windows, IOS, Android
#2  
I've attempted using very advanced methods, to no avail, so no. Windows only. Or Bootcamp or similar emulator on MAC.

OK, that last suggestion had to be a late Saturday night "after the part" reply. :P

@Dave:
Juan is talking about this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine_(software)

But your suggestion is still valid...

I'm going to be honest i tried wine software for a few times...

Trying to run a .NET application (EZ-Builder) which uses .NET 4.5 APIs plus other rich APIs e.g. Microsoft Speech, is a herculean effort, chasing all the dependencies and open issues ...

so i share Dave's opinion, start with a Glass of Wine than proceed to the full bottle, and keep going when you start seeing the light.... you done:)

Quick answer:
Unless you have nothing better to spend the time... I don't think Linux + Wine + ARC will work.

Check the .NET 4.5 framework support under wine here:
https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=25478

and if you really want to try...

"may the force be with you..." you will need it!

You can run a full windows install in Virtual Box under Linux. Of course, requires a Windows license, but robotics is not a poor man's hobby...

I used Wine in my attempt, and only had a problem trying to launch ARC after install. it stumped me so I stopped.

The more wine you use the less stumped you'll become. I think Yoda said that. :D

I got the credit. Thanks. The adult beverage must have done the trick. :D
