My first and foremost wish regarding Yarn is (and has been for some
time) to see it ported to Linux.

Or, if that's not feasible (too time-consuming), why not distribute it
under GPL GNU license? It's freeware, anyway, right?

And, since we're at it, maybe Chin would agree for somebody else to
port it to Linux?

Just my 2 cents' worth...
