check1min program , works in Wine for Mac OS

[teraita]

Today I tested check1min in Wine software , which allow the run Windows executables in different platforms. I tested it in Mac OS 10.12.5. It seems to work. DOSBox does not work as the check1min needs win32 for running.

Great! Please note I also plan to rewrite check1min in Java. @JanReda has provided all the details and source code of check1min to me.

Sometimes using EXE file under No Windows is not easy. Check1min is not such sophisticated as IMCDView or MagPy, but can detect the most common problems in complete data sets (including metadata files). I suppose that Java or C application could be relatively easily converted to web application in next step.

I am also using check1min in a linux environment using wine. Works perfectly fine. I can post instructions here as well. We could add some document with user instructions for linux, mac, windows here.
