Wine is a way to run Windows software on Linux, but with no Windows required. Wine is an open-source Windows compatibility layer that can run Windows programs directly on any Linux desktop. Essentially, Wine is trying to re-implement enough of Windows from scratch so that it can run all those Windows applications without actually needing Windows.
Portable X-Server
DESCRIPTION:
The goal of this project is to provide a minimal X Window System which will run out of the box on any Windows 7+ system. To realize this, I take a suitable installation package from the project VcXsrv Windows X Server (see https://sourceforge.net/projects/vcxsrv/), install it, remove all files that aren't needed for basic functionality and archive it to a .zip file.Portable X-Server also integrates seamlessly into WinSSHTerm, a tabbed SSH solution for Windows:

This is an application that can also be fetched from https://sourceforge.net/projects/portable-x-server/. It has been hosted in OnWorks in order to be run online in an easiest way from one of our free Operative Systems.
