.SH NAME
wine \- run Windows programs under Unix
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B wine
[
.I options

.I program_name
[
.I program_name...
]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B wine
invokes the Windows emulator.
.PP
.B wine 
currently runs a growing list of applications written for both Win3.1 and 
Win95.  Older, simpler applications work better than newer, more complex 
ones.  A large percentage of the API has been implemented, although there
are still several major pieces of work left to do.
.SH REQUIREMENTS
At present, 
.B wine
will run under any Linux kernel more recent than 0.99.13, or
under recent releases of NetBSD/i386, FreeBSD and OpenBSD/i386.
.PP
The current support for multithreaded applications relies on the 
.B clone(2)
system call, which is currently available only on Linux systems running
libc6 (glibc2).
.PP
.B X
must be installed.  To use Wine's support for multithreaded applications,
your X libraries must be reetrant.  If you have libc6 (glibc2), or you 
compiled the libraries yourself, they were probably compiled with the 
reetrant option enabled.  
.PP
.B libXpm
must be installed.  If you're using Red Hat, the name of the package is
XFree86-devel.  The sources may be FTP'd from ftp.Xfree86.org or its 
mirrors.
.PP
.B gcc
2.7.x or later is required to build
.B wine.
Versions earlier than 2.7.2.3 may have problems when certain files are
compiled with optimization.
.SH INSTALLATION
To install 
.B Wine,
run "./configure" in the top-level directory of the source, which will 
detect your specific setup and create the Makefiles.  You can run 
"./configure --help" to see the available configuration options.  Then do 
"make depend; make" to build the
.B wine
executable, and then "make install" to install it. By default,
.B wine
is installed in /usr/local/bin; you can specify a different path with
the --prefix option when running
.B configure.
.PP
For more information, see the 
.B README
file contained in the source distribution.

.TP
.I -synchronous
Turn on synchronous display mode
.TP
.I -winver version

Possible arguments are: win31, win95, nt351, and nt40.
.PD 1
.SH PROGRAM/ARGUMENTS
The program name may be specified in DOS format (C:\\WINDOWS\\SOL.EXE) or in 
Unix format (/msdos/windows/sol.exe).  The program being executed may be 
passed arguments by adding them on to the end of the command line invoking
.B wine
(such as: wine "notepad C:\\TEMP\\README.TXT").  Note that
the program name and its arguments 
.I must
be passed as a single parameter, which is usually accomplished by placing
them together in quotation marks.  Multiple applications may be started
by placing all of them on the command line (such as: wine notepad clock).
.SH CONFIGURATION FILE
.B wine
expects a configuration file (/usr/local/etc/wine.conf), which should
conform to the following rules (the format is just like a Windows .ini
file).  The actual file name may be specified during the execution of
the
.B configure
script.  Alternatively, you may have a 
.I .winerc
file of this format in your home directory or have the environment variable
.B WINE_INI
pointing to a configuration file.
.SH CONFIGURATION FILE FORMAT
All entries are grouped in sections; a section begins with the line
.br
.I [section name]
.br
and continues until the next section starts. Individual entries
consist of lines of the form
.br
.I entry=value
.br
The value can be any text string, optionally included in single or
double quotes; it can also contain references to environment variables
surrounded by
.I ${}.
Supported section names and entries are listed below.
.PP
.B [Drive X]
.br
This section is used to specify the root directory and type of each
.B DOS

disk drive & directory scheme. There is one such section for every
drive you want to configure.
.PP
.I format: Path = <rootdirectory>
.br
default: none
.br
If you mounted your dos partition as 
.I /dos

.SH BUGS
There are too many to count, much less list.  Some bugs of note, however,
are that programs requiring VBRUNxxx.DLL are unreliable (with reports of
some working), OLE is not in place, the internal COMMDLG support is not yet
at 100% (although rapidly improving).  Color support for other than 8bpp
(256 colors) is currently flaky.
.PP
A status report on many appplications is available from
