Re: [Audyssey] what is wine? RE: MOTA Beta 14 Released!
Hi, I use a shell script called winetricks. It gives you a GTK GUI to select the windows components e.g. SAPI or vb6 runtime and then automaticly installs it for you. I think one can get it from the wine website, however it is not supported by the wine project. Take care, Rynhardt * Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com [101006 19:19]: Hi Peter, No. If you want Sapi support for Wine you have to download Sapi 5.1 and install it manually into Wine. Since wine isn't exactly speech friendly you'll need sighted assistance installing Sapi support. Honestly running Windows XP through VMPlayer is a better solution in my opinion than Wine.

Re: [Audyssey] what is wine? RE: MOTA Beta 14 Released!
The name Wine initially was an acronym for WINdows Emulator Later on it was derived from the recursive acronym Wine Is Not an Emulator While the name sometimes appears in the forms WINE and wine, the project developers have agreed to standardize on the form Wine. -- From Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine_%28software%29 HTH On 10/6/10, NIcol nicoljaco...@telkomsa.net wrote: HI Tom On 06 October 2010 05:40 AM you said: Well, that leaves us with wine.

Re: [Audyssey] what is wine? RE: MOTA Beta 14 Released!
Hi, Thanks for the tip. That would be awesome if I could use that to help get some of the Windows games up and running under wine. Especially, since I am down to one and a half Windows computers and several Linux boxes.

it's worth saying though that it will only work with things that are self voicing, as there isn't a way to run a screen reader. you can, however, run things that use sapi. what does it use for a sapi voice anyway. does it interface with speech dispatcher or something? - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Wednesday, October 06, 2010 5:42 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] what is wine?

Hi Nicol, Sigh...No, Wine is not an abbreviation. It is just the name of the program. Now, could you please get back on topic here? Thanks.
