Default How could ultima work under mono?

So there is an alternative, you can use mono/asp on linux.

And Ultima.dll should have no problems with Mono, or at least worth a try.
Unless mono maped the Bitmap class used by the ultima.dll to GTK+, then I don't understand how it would work (ultima.dll uses directx, which I don't think mono is doing).

Even then, he would have to write a program to use the dll. The issue isnt having available libraires to read the gumps on linux, there are. What isn't clear, is he expecting to have to write a wrapper program to translate it tosome image format, or is he expecting to do that in php ? It sitll isn't clear he he plans on manipulating the mul files from php.
