[R-SIG-Finance] Formely known Rbloomberg package

[Whit Armstrong]

You could try to run the exe in a windows vm, and then it will work as
expected. (using socat as I explained)

I have no experience with emul.exe, so I can't really offer any other insight.

Perhaps use nmap or some other tool to determine which port it is exposing...

Good luck.
