Reaper license is not bound to particular platform.
There is some similarity in Mac building routes with Sonar - both created it on Windows and then expanded to Mac. But they took different parallel roads. Reaper is based on own WDL (
https://www.cockos.com/wdl/), so they have wrapped Windows specific code themselves. That works.
Sonar has delegated the task to generic Windows code wrapper, Codewavers. That was also a kind of working, but you know the result...
Funny that Reaper (windows version) perfectly works under Codewavers (Wine in Linux), without any modifications and without glitches (unlike Sonar X2/X3 which also work there, but with a long list of problems).
