Alexandre Julliard 7d654eb24e Release 960225
Sat Feb 24 16:17:05 1996  Alexandre Julliard  <julliard@lrc.epfl.ch>

	* [files/profile.c]
	Added \r when writing profile files, for DOS compatibility.

	* [memory/global.c]
	Fixed bug in GlobalReAlloc() that caused a discarded block not to
 	be reallocated if its size was not changed.

	* [memory/selector.c]
	Avoid setting a valid LDT entry with base and limit set to 0, as
 	this causes the kernel to clear the entry. This fixes a crash when
 	exiting Windows program manager.

	* [objects/metafile.c]
	Removed call to creat() instead of _lcreat() for WINELIB.

Fri Feb 23 00:35:54 1996  Thomas Sandford <tdgsandf@prds-grn.demon.co.uk>

	* [if1632/gdi32.spec]
	GetTextExtentPointA now has win32 specific implementation.

	* [include/struct32.h]
	Define new structure tagSIZE32 and typedef SIZE32 to it.
	Define prototype for function PARAM32_SIZE16to32

	* [win32/param32.c]
	New functions PARAM32_SIZE16to32 and WIN32_GetTextExtentPointA

	* [win32/memory.c]
	Added missing file pointer parameter to fprintf.

Thu Feb 22 01:14:21 1996  Eric Warnke <ew2193@csc.albany.edu>

	* [windows/nonclient.c]
	Added more familiar icon activity, ie single click brings up
 	system menu.

Wed Feb 21 13:07:04 1996  Frans van Dorsselaer <dorssel@rulhm1.leidenuniv.nl>

	* [controls/menu.c]
	Added calls to HideCaret() and ShowCaret() from within
 	TrackPopupMenu(), MENU_TrackMouseMenuBar() and
 	MENU_TrackKbdMenuBar().  Are there any more places where this
 	should be done?

	* [controls/static.c]
	Fixed a FIXME in STATIC_SetIcon(), which now returns a handle to
 	the previous icon.  Added a new FIXME at the point where
 	WM_SETTEXT is handled for a SS_ICON static control.

	* [misc/commdlg.c]
	Implemented FindText() and ReplaceText()
	Still missing : Templates and Hooks handling / error checking

	* [resources/sysres_En.c]
	Redesigned FIND_TEXT and REPLACE_TEXT dialogs, so they now work.
	Languages other than En should update these too, though, as well
 	as redimension the controls because some of the text doesn't fit.
  	Created file resources/TODO to explain this.

	* [windows/caret.c]
	Re-written.  It now uses the correct R2_XORPEN.  It resets the
 	blink timer on SetCaretPos().  It does its own hide/show scheme
 	when SetCaretPos() is called (should be faster).

Mon Feb 19 21:50:00 1996  Alex Korobka <alex@phm30.pharm.sunysb.edu>

	* [controls/listbox.c]
	Miscellaneous changes for better LBS_EXTENDEDSEL support.
	Removed several superfluous redrawals of item list.

	* [controls/scroll.c]
	WM_GETDLGCODE return value.

	* [windows/win.c]
	FlashWindow function.

	* [windows/painting.c] [windows/scroll.c]
	Added HideCaret/ShowCaret calls.

	* [objects/font.c]
	Added GetCharABCWidths stub.

	* [include/windows.h]
	"#define"s needed for changes mentioned above.

Mon Feb 19 20:12:03 1996  Hans de Graaff  <Hans.deGraaff@twi72.twi.tudelft.nl>

	* [include/winsock.h]
	Change order of includes to get in_addr struct defined in time.
	(Note: Linux 1.3.66, libc 5.2.18)

	* [misc/main.c] [include/options.h] [miscemu/int2f.c]
	Changed the -enhanced option into a -mode option, which can be
	either 'standard' or 'enhanced'. 'enhanced' is the default.

README

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.
