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.
|
|
|
|
Important note: current versions of Wine include a built-in debugger
|
|
for 16-bit code, that is based on code from gdb. This means that if
|
|
you redistribute a version of Wine that includes this debugger, you
|
|
must follow the terms of the GNU General Public License.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. COMPILATION
|
|
|
|
You must have one of:
|
|
|
|
Linux version 0.99.13 or above
|
|
NetBSD-current
|
|
FreeBSD-current or FreeBSD 1.1
|
|
|
|
To build Wine, first do a "./Configure" and then a "make" (or "gmake"
|
|
if you're running *BSD). 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".
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. SETUP
|
|
|
|
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 config file is just like a Windows .ini file.
|
|
The file wine.ini contains a config file example.
|
|
|
|
Here's an explanation of each section:
|
|
|
|
* [drives]
|
|
|
|
format: <driveletter> = <rootdirectory>
|
|
default: none
|
|
|
|
This section is used to specify the root directory of each `dos'drive
|
|
as Windows' applications require a dos/mswindows based diskdrive &
|
|
directory scheme.
|
|
|
|
If you mounted your dos-partition as /dos and installed Microsoft Windows
|
|
in c:\windows than you should specify c=/dos in the drives section.
|
|
|
|
* [wine]
|
|
|
|
format: windows = <directory>
|
|
default: c:\windows
|
|
|
|
Used to specify an different windows directory.
|
|
|
|
format: system = <directory>
|
|
default: c:\windows\system
|
|
|
|
Used to specify an different system directory.
|
|
|
|
format: temp = <directory>
|
|
default: c:\temp
|
|
|
|
Used to specify a directory where Windows applications can store temporary
|
|
files.
|
|
|
|
format: path = <directories separated by semi-colons>
|
|
default: c:\windows;c:\windows\system
|
|
|
|
Used to specify the path which will be used to find executables and DLL's.
|
|
|
|
format: systemresources = <filename>
|
|
default: c:\temp
|
|
|
|
Used to specify the name of sysres.dll, a dll which is used by Wine itself.
|
|
|
|
* [serialports]
|
|
|
|
format: com[12345678] = <devicename>
|
|
default: none
|
|
|
|
Used to specify the devices which are used as com1 - com8.
|
|
|
|
* [parallelports]
|
|
|
|
format: lpt[12345678] = <devicename>
|
|
default: none
|
|
|
|
Used to specify the devices which are used as lpt1 - lpt8.
|
|
|
|
* [spy]
|
|
|
|
format: file = <filename or CON when logging to stdout>
|
|
default: none
|
|
|
|
used to specify the file which will be used as logfile.
|
|
|
|
format: exclude = <message names separated by semicolons>
|
|
default: none
|
|
|
|
Used to specify which messages will be excluded from the logfile.
|
|
|
|
format: include = <message names separated by semicolons>
|
|
default: none
|
|
|
|
Used to specify which messages will be included in the logfile.
|
|
|
|
|
|
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 to
|
|
wine-new@amscons.com for inclusion in the next release.
