Ah, but AppleCommander itself is a Java app.  So, wherever a Java 
interpreter is available, AppleCommander should be available.

With the GUI, I'm limited to where SWT is available - it uses some 
native code.  That makes Windows, Linux, Mac (OS X only?), and SUN 
workstations.

However, the command-line versions would be available wherever GCC/GCJ 
is available or can target... not sure, but I think that's even wider.
