Did you see the steps I posted?  No need of any GUI, just download and
install LDC for Linux and download and unpack LDC for Windows (both from
here: https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/releases -- just download
the tarball/zip and unpack them, no need for any installers), edit
ldc2.conf, and you can start cross-compiling right away.  It's what I've
been doing for the past year for one of my projects. :-D

The LDC folk have done a really awesome job at making Linux -> Windows
cross-compilation so painless.
