FYI, The Regex Coach 0.9.2 (and 0.9.1) works just fine on my Ubuntu 8.04
and 8.10 Linux under Wine (Wine Is Not an Emulator).
HOWTO:
Type (or copy & paste) these commands in a terminal window. Note the
'$' represents the (non-root) user prompt.
$ sudo aptitude install wine wget
$ wget 'http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks'
$ bash ./winetricks vcrun2005sp1 vcrun2008
$ wget -O regex-coach-0.9.2.exe 'http://weitz.de/files/regex-coach.exe'
$ wine ./regex-coach-0.9.2.exe
Notes:
* regex-coach-0.9.2.exe is just the usual TRC installer
* You will find the tool in the Applications, Wine, Programs, The Regex
Coach menu.
* Do NOT install Wine directly from the web, use the package management
system (usually RPM or APT/deb) built-in to your Linux distro and
version. If you stray from that you will regret it sooner or
later--probably sooner. Trust me.

Hope this is useful,

PS--It might be useful to update the "Older versions, Linux, FreeBSD,
Mac" section of http://www.weitz.de/regex-coach/, since it is so easy to
get it working.
