Raven runs Windows applications on Linux. You install them with their own installers, the same ones you would use on a PC, and they start: no virtual machine, no winetricks, no DLL overrides.

I didn’t post this originally because I forgot what it was called. But what I was thinking of is called “wine-binfmt”.
On Arch, I’m pretty sure this is installed automatically with Wine (possibly also on Debian/Ubuntu).
This lets you just open an exe file and have Wine handle it.
i used to click it and simply set wine to open it on my environment. it started getting manage-y when i needed to configure it for certain apps and not others, and having to manage prefixes and winetricks and such.
wine-binfmt looks like another way to do the same if i’m not mistaken?
wine-binfmt, I think, looks at the file header and if it’s an “exe” then open with Wine. So yeah, sounds similar.
