Modern x86 is relatively uncommon in embedded systems, however; small low power applications (using tiny batteries), and low-cost microprocessor markets, such as home appliances and toys, lack significant x86 presence. [g] Simple 8- and 16-bit based architectures are common here, as well as simpler RISC architectures like RISC-V, although the ...
Windows applications recompiled for ARM and linked with Winelib, from the Wine project, can run on 32-bit or 64-bit ARM in Linux, FreeBSD, or other compatible operating systems. [ 216 ] [ 217 ] x86 binaries, e.g. when not specially compiled for ARM, have been demonstrated on ARM using QEMU with Wine (on Linux and more), [ citation needed ] but ...
A port of Windows 8 for ARM architecture, Windows RT, is marketed as an edition of Windows 8, but was only included as pre-loaded software on devices specifically developed for it. [147] Windows 8 was distributed as a retail box product on DVD, and through a digital download that could be converted into DVD or USB install media.

Windows RT is a mobile operating system developed by Microsoft and released alongside Windows 8 on October 26, 2012. It is a version of Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 built for the 32-bit ARM architecture (ARMv7), [6] designed to take advantage of the architecture's power efficiency to allow for longer battery life, to use system-on-chip (SoC) designs to allow for thinner devices and to provide a ...
Lina, which runs some Linux binaries on Windows, Mac OS X and Unix-like systems with native look and feel. KernelEX, which runs some Windows 2000/XP programs on Windows 98/Me. Executor, which runs 68k-based "classic" Mac OS programs in Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Anbox, an Android compatibility layer for Linux.
For example, an application such as Firefox, which already runs on Windows on the x86 family, can be modified and re-built to run on Linux on the x86 (and potentially other architectures) as well. The multiple versions of the code may be stored as separate codebases, or merged into one codebase.
NOTE: Linux systems may vary by distribution which specific program, or even 'command' is called, via the POSIX alias function. For example, if you wanted to use the DOS dir to give you a directory listing with one detailed file listing per line you could use {{{1}}} (e.g. in a session configuration file).
