Charles, this message along with a couple of dozen others, is a 
month old and was sent out by your BBS for reasons unknown...

But to answer your questions, PCB was always available in an OS/2 
version, as far as I remember.  I ran the DOS version many years 
ago.  This new rewrite/clone that is going on will be available 
for Linux.  There is an active Facebook page for it if you want to 
have a look there.
