>Has anyone run HOL on Linux?

Yes, me. But I'm running HOL90.6 (!not! hol88) on Linux, Slackware 1.2.0,
kernel 1.0.8. However, you have to be aware of a bug in the unsupported 
version of SML/NJ 0.93 for Linux: getWD() does not work properly. As
E. Gunter noted before, you can get around this problem by
supplying the HOLDir - path directly to the script make_hol.

I'm running Xholhelp on Linux, too. You just have to recompile it.
I used gcc 2.5.8. You only need to set the help path, then run the 
installation script as described. Be aware that for Slackware 1.2.0, 
you have to set the path to cpp for imake, otherwise the installation 
script will fail because it won't find cpp.

Ralf.
