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.

dxf2pcb to run in Windows online over Linux online
DESCRIPTION
This Python script reads in a DXF (ascii) file and generates a PCB output compatible with PCB Designer, part of the gEDA suite. It is designed for two purposes: One is to generate a PCB snippet from a mechanical drawing (such as a board outline), the other is to produce element files from CAD drawings. PCB snippets are easily imported into an existing gEDA-PCB project using File -> Load Layout to Buffer. Generated element files are ready to use (except for special cases like no-paste flags and rounded pads).Features
- -inf switch just displays information about the DXF file (layers used, drawing extents)
- -xl switch allows the user to exclude layers from consideration--useful to remove features not applicable to the PCB, such as page borders and title blocks
- Can use line weights from DXF file or override them with user setting.
- -scl switch scales the drawing by given factor
- -dmo switch prevents dxf2pcb from moving the drawing to the origin before exporting
- -cth switch allows conversion of circles smaller than a specified size to drill holes (makes fixing element locations a snap)
- -v switch for verbose mode
- -el switch for generating element files
- -an switch for automatically numbering pins/pads
- -iun and -ilu switches for overriding drawing and line weight units
