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.
SCREENSHOTS:
Bit-Twist (Packet Generator/Editor)
DESCRIPTION:
Supported systems: Linux, BSD, macOS, and Windows.
Bit-Twist is a simple yet powerful libpcap-based Ethernet packet generator and packet editor. It is designed to complement tcpdump, which by itself has done a great job at capturing network traffic.
With Bit-Twist, you can now regenerate your captured traffic onto a live network! Packets are generated from tcpdump trace file (.pcap file). Bit-Twist also comes with a comprehensive trace file editor to allow you to change the contents of a trace file.
Bit-Twist is designed for exceptional speed! Utilizing a standard laptop with Linux system, you can edit 10 million packets in less than 5 seconds, and send the packets onto a live network, achieving throughput levels that match the maximum line rate of your NIC.
Packet generator is useful in simulating networking traffic or scenario, testing firewall, IDS, and IPS, and troubleshooting various network problems.

Features
- Highly portable: Bit-Twist runs on Linux, BSD, macOS, and Windows.
- Send multiple trace files indefinitely with set interval, packets per second, or line rate between 1 Mbps to 10 Gbps using built-in token bucket algorithm.
- Comprehensive trace file editor to edit most fields in Ethernet, ARP, IPv4, IPv6, ICMPv4, ICMPv6, TCP, and UDP headers. Templates are also included to generate packets with these headers without needing an existing trace file.
- Automatic header checksum correction (with option to disable).
- Send packets with custom QoS bits to test classification and queuing features of switches and routers.
- Send packets with uniformly distributed random numbers for port numbers, TCP sequence numbers, etc.
- Append custom payload (e.g. copy of hex stream from Wireshark) to existing packets after a specific header, handy for testing new protocols.
- Send packets with truncated or expanded length in bytes, facilitating incremental throughput testing.
- Highly scriptable: With proper manipulation, you can turn Bit-Twist into a versatile packet generator and packet editor tooling to meet your network testing requirements.
