Once it
works for the emulated tape drives, I can easily add the real

It seems from your description that it wouldn't be too hard to
create the app on Windows using GNUstep. You might look at
http://wiki.gnustep.org/index.php/Deployment_on_Windows
and
http://www.gnustep.org/resources/documentation/User/GNUstep/
README.MinGW
for info on deploying the application so that the user does not
need to install GNUstep first.
