I really wanted to compile this program to see if I could get the kewl pixel-art in the screenshot just above. But I have to do it on Windows.
In another time, I would take some time to fix this so it works on Linux.
What I did specifically was to go into "HEXEDIT.BAS" and make sure all filenames it requests are in uppercase because all filenames included in the ZIP have uppercase filenames. Then the compilation failed trying to look for "comdlg32.dll" inside one of the include files. This seems to go much further than the save and open file dialogs from Windows. Curiously in 32-bit this presented program looks for the window for "SICK64", as part of logic for "FindWindow()".
Just to let others know that I get interested in stuff available on the forum and check it out, but it's kind of hard if I need to go into Windows to compile it, and otherwise depend on a finished executable from someone else to see if it runs under Wine. :/
