Fri Jul 12 17:43:05 1996 Alexandre Julliard <julliard@lrc.epfl.ch> * [controls/scroll.c] Use Win32 heap functions to allocate scroll-bar info structure. * [debugger/dbg.y] [debugger/registers.c] Added support for FS and GS segment registers. Check that segment registers value are OK before returning from the signal handler. * [tools/build.c] [if1632/relay.c] [loader/builtin.c] Changed relay debugging for Win32 function: the relay code now passes the entry point address instead of the function name. * [tools/build.c] [miscemu/*.c] Added support for data entry points in Win32 DLLs. Added 'cdecl' function type for Win32. For 'register' function, the relay code now passes a pointer to the SIGCONTEXT structure. * [include/registers.h] [include/wine.h] Moved SIGCONTEXT structure definition in registers.h. * [loader/pe_image.c] Don't die at once if some Win32 entry points cannot be found, but set them to NULL, just like we do for Win16. This allows some programs to go further before crashing. * [loader/task.c] [loader/main.c] Moved global initializations from InitTask() to MAIN_Init(), as they no longer need a task context with the new SEGPTR heap functions. * [memory/string.c] Added lstrcpynAtoW and lstrcpynWtoA; not real API functions, but very convenient. * [windows/graphics.c] Partially implemented DrawEdge(). * [windows/timer.c] [windows/caret.c] Implemented Win32 timer handling. Updated caret management to use Win32 timers (avoids having to use a Win16 callback). * [windows/win.c] Prevent programs from setting some style bits with SetWindowLong(). This should fix some BadMatch crashes. Link new windows at the end of the linked list. * [windows/winpos.c] Don't try to activate a child window in ShowWindow(). * [windows/winproc.c] Added a 32->32 thunk to support Ansi-Unicode translation. Wed Jul 10 22:11:12 1996 Marcus Meissner <msmeissn@cip.informatik.uni-erlangen.de> * [files/directory.c] Additional (undocumented) return value for GetTempDrive() added. * [files/dos_fs.c] [files/file.c] [include/windows.h] GetTempFileName32* added. GetShortPathName* added. * [memory/string.c] Win16 lstrcpy() can get NULL ptrs as argument and survive. * [misc/lzexpand.c] LZOpenFile(): also try opening with compressed filename if normal open fails. * [misc/ole2nls.c] [misc/lstr.c] [include/windows.h] Char* added. CompareString* added. Sun Jul 7 01:22:14 1996 Jukka Iivonen <iivonen@cc.helsinki.fi> * [objects/font.c] [if1632/gdi32.spec] CreateFontIndirect32A and CreateFontIndirect32W added. * [misc/ole2nls.c] GetUserDefaultLCID return values updated for new languages. Finnish support added for GetLocaleInfoA. * [object/palette] [gdi32.spec] RealizePalette32 and SelectPalette32 added. Sat Jul 6 17:27:30 1996 Ronan Waide <root@waider.ie> * [misc/shell.c] Fixup for SHELL_FindExecutable so that File->Run from progman works once more. Still needs some more fixups - grep for FIXME in this file. |

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 build Winelib, do a "./configure --with-library", and then a "make
depend; make". The library "winelib.a" will be built, allowing to
compile Windows source code under Unix. If you have an ELF compiler,
you can use "./configure --with-dll" instead to build a shared library.
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.
