Martin,
I've been running LAStools successfully under 32 bit red hat linux for a few years now without too much problem. However, we are starting to transition to 64 bit RHEL and I'm finding things don't work. I believe it is mostly a specific issue with wine on 64 bit RHEL that isn't supporting 32-bit windows executables. Picking a different flavor of linux isn't an option I have. I recognize that the release of linux versions of the tools is unlikely, but I wondered if you might be able to release 64-bit windows versions. I believe those would work.

Thanks,
Kirk

Kirk,

I'm so happy to see that others are trying to use lastools on linux! Just throwing in my support for either a linux version (I know, I know) or a little help by releasing a 64-bit windows version.

Thanks!
