Hello everyone.

I'm happy to announce the release of VPA-Linux, a port of the classic VPA client that runs on any Linux distribution without requiring DosBox/DOSEmu.

It includes a bit-exact PHost combat viewer (replacing the old DOS-only PVCR.EXE), all running natively on X11/Wayland.

It's available for download at https://github.com/promano7/vpa-linux

If you encounter any bugs or problems while running it, please let me know. Thank you.

I also want to thank Stefan for his code to get the PHost combat viewer integrated into VPA-Linux, and for the great help his File Format List provided for programming for VGA-Planets.
