NOTES:
- The platforms noted as [not tested] in the list, are platforms on which the software should work but with no warranty. All development tools used in this software are certified on these non-tested platforms but we didn't check by ourself. Most of these platforms are pretty old, that's why there are not actively supported.
- The Linux installer requires the following commands: bzip2, lzma, xdg-mime, xdg-desktop-menu, xdg-icon-resource. If one of them is missing, the installation will stop and you might have to manually remove the installation folder.
