Nick,

The basic idea is to recompile torque on your linux system.

I will assume that you are using vc++, or codewarrior on your windows system.
You compile your torque executable in linux via gcc, using makefile's.
Provided you are using the torque platform layer, have included your extra source files (add them into the makefile's), and your code is gcc friendly, it should compile on linux.

Once you have got your executable compiled, all you need to do is run it on your target system (in this case, linux).
