Sun Apr 28 14:32:43 1996  Alexandre Julliard  <julliard@lrc.epfl.ch>

	* [Makefile.in]
	Subdir memory is now also compiled for Winelib, in order to get
	the Win32 heap functions.

	* [if1632/Makefile.in]
	Renamed winprocs and winprocs32 to wprocs and wprocs32 to avoid
	DLL names > 8 characters.

	* [loader/builtin.c] (New file)
	Grouped all built-in DLLs code in a single file.

	* [memory/global.c]
	Use the Win32 heap code instead of malloc() to allocate linear
	memory. This will help test the heap code.

	* [memory/local.c]
	Fixed FreeSelector() to clear DS and ES correctly for huge blocks.

	* [tools/build.c] [if1632/relay.c]
	Removed 'id' directive in spec files. For relay debugging, the DLL
	entry point is now computed from the CS:IP entry point address.
	Added 'heap' directive to specifiy a local heap for the DLL. USER
	and GDI heap are now created this way.

	* [windows/class.c] [include/class.h]
	Changed the class structure to use pointers instead of handles.
	Changed Get/SetClassWord/Long to use a switch statement; this
	allows changing the layout of the CLASS structure.

	* [windows/win.c] [include/win.h]
	Use a CLASS * instead of a handle for the window class.

Sat Apr 27 18:10:11 Martin von Loewis <loewis@informatik.hu-berlin.de>

	* [if1632/kernel32.spec] [memory/global.c]
	  [win32/memory.c] [win32/process.c]
	GetProcessAffinityMask,GlobalLock,IsBadReadPtr,IsBadWritePtr,
	LocalLock,SetThreadAffinityMask: new relays.

	* [win32/cursoricon32.c]
	Return same handle if a cursor is loaded multiple times.

Sat Apr 27 15:13:37 1996  Bang Jun Young <bangjy@nownuri.nowcom.co.kr>

	* [resources/sysres_Ko.rc]
        Added support for Korean [Ko] language.

Fri Apr 26 00:49:05 1996  Huw D. M. Davies <h.davies1@physics.oxford.ac.uk>

	* [objects/dc.c] [objects/font.c]
	Fixed problem with SaveDC()/RestoreDC() and font cache 'used' count.

	* [objects/metafile.c] [objects/dcvalues.c]
	Fixed broken SetTextAlign() on metafiles.

	* [objects/metafile.c]
	Delete objects in handle table at end of PlayMetaFile().

Wed Apr 24 19:21:01  Marcus Meissner <msmeissn@cip.informatik.uni-erlangen.de>

	* [if1632/ver.spec] [misc/ver.c] [include/ver.h] (New files)
	VER.DLL (partially) implemented (VerFindFile,VerInstallFile)
	[If it doesn't work for you, use -dll -ver and report it to me]

	* [if1632/user32.spec] [if1632/kernel32.spec] [if1632/shell.spec]
	  [if1632/shell32.spec] [misc/ole2nls.c] [windows/message.c]
	  [windows/graphics.c]
	Simple win32 functions, where we can just use the win16 counterpart.
	Misc. stubs. 

	* [misc/lstr.c]
	Someone reported a _lstrlen(NULL). NULL is a valid argument. Fixed.

	* [misc/registry.c]
	Some alloclens were off by 1, one double fclose() fixed.
	Requesting value 0 of a key with no values returns an error 
	(should we always return a made up value NULL? what does win3.1?)

Tue Apr 23 17:00:00 1996 Alex Korobka <alex@phm30.pharm.sunysb.edu>

	* [misc/shell.c]
	Implemented FindEnvironmentString(), DoEnvironmentSubst(),
	ExtractIcon(), InternalExtractIcon() and ExtractAssociatedIcon().

	* [misc/user.c]
	Do extensive cleanup on application exit.

	* [windows/hook.c] [windows/win.c] [windows/class.c]
	Added miscellaneous cleanup routines.

	* [controls/menu.c]
	More efficient popup menu window handling.

Mon Apr 22 21:35:22 1996  Albrecht Kleine  <kleine@ak.sax.de>

	* [include/windows.h][objects/oembitmap.c][include/bitmaps/obm_trtype]
	Added "TT-bitmap" for later usage in a ChooseFont() ownerdraw combobox.

1. INTRODUCTION

Wine is a program that allows running MS-Windows programs under X11.
It consists of a program loader, that loads and executes an
MS-Windows binary, and of an emulation library that translates Windows
API calls to their Unix/X11 equivalent.

Wine is free software. See the file LICENSE for the details.
Basically, you can do anything with it, except claim that you wrote it.


2. COMPILATION

You must have one of:

	Linux version 0.99.13 or above
	NetBSD-current
	FreeBSD-current or FreeBSD 1.1

You also need to have libXpm installed on your system. The sources for
it are probably available on the ftp site where you got Wine. They can
also be found on ftp.x.org and all its mirror sites.

To build Wine, first do a "./configure" and then a "make depend; make".
The executable "wine" will be built.  "wine" will load and run 16-bit
Windows executables.

To upgrade to a new release by using a patch file, first cd to the
top-level directory of the release (the one containing this README
file). Then do a "make clean", and patch the release with:

    gunzip -c patch-file | patch -p1

where "patch-file" is the name of the patch file (something like
Wine-yymmdd.diff.gz). You can then re-run "./configure", and then
run "make depend; make".


3. SETUP

Once Wine has been built correctly, you can do "make install"; this
will install the wine executable and the man page.

Wine requires you to have a file /usr/local/etc/wine.conf (you can
supply a different name when configuring wine) or a file called .winerc
in your home directory.

The format of this file is explained in the man page. The file
wine.ini contains a config file example.


4. RUNNING PROGRAMS

When invoking Wine, you must specify the entire path to the executable,
or a filename only.

For example: to run Windows' solitaire:

	wine sol		   (using the searchpath to locate the file)
	wine sol.exe

	wine c:\\windows\\sol.exe  (using a dosfilename)

	wine /usr/windows/sol.exe  (using a unixfilename)

Note: the path of the file will also be added to the path when
      a full name is supplied on the commandline.

Have a nice game of solitaire, but be careful.  Emulation isn't perfect.
So, occasionally it may crash.


5. GETTING MORE INFORMATION

The best place to get help or to report bugs is the Usenet newsgroup
comp.emulators.ms-windows.wine. The Wine FAQ is posted there every
month.

If you add something, or fix a bug, please send a patch ('diff -u'
format preferred) to julliard@lrc.epfl.ch for inclusion in the next
release.
