In the past I have been able to use Zorro within wine on a Linux system for all features that do not require the network (no live trading , no historical data downloads). It is still useful for scripted / headless backtests.
Some more recent features involving Options absolutely require the R bridge. I can install R for Windows under wine as well, but Zorro can't seem to connect to it. In scripts that include contract.c, I get log message like "Can't run R!", and Zorro continues albeit with obviously wrong option chain data. This doesn't happen in Zorro + R installed in a Windows VM.
Has anyone else gotten further with this problem?
