| .TH WINE 1 "September 1, 1995" "Version 9/1/95" "Windows Emulation" |
| .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 number of games and small applications (approximately |
| half of the applets and common games actually run), although the entire API |
| has not been implemented. |
| .PP |
| See the files |
| .B README, |
| .B ChangeLog, |
| .B configure, |
| and the |
| .B Makefile |
| contained in the source distribution |
| to compile |
| .B wine. |
| .SH REQUIREMENTS |
| At present, |
| .B wine |
| will run under any Linux kernel more recent than 0.99.13, or |
| under recent releases of NetBSD and FreeBSD. |
| .PP |
| .B X |
| must be installed. |
| .PP |
| .B libXpm |
| must be installed. (It is probably available from the same site |
| .B wine |
| was, or the sources may be FTP'd from ftp.x.org). |
| .SH INSTALLATION |
| To install |
| .B Wine, |
| run "./configure", 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. |

| .PD 1 |
| .SH PROGRAM/ARGUMENTS |
| The program name may be specified in DOS format (C:\\WINDOWS\\SOL.EXE) or in |
| Linux 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. |
| .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 |

| .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. |
