Subject: [SuSE Linux] Wine - Microsoft Word 97 ? Hi Joop & yes Wine does
Word-badly...?


Hi Guys & happy geeking to all.
Now Joop wrote the folling to  Leonard Ong

"Wine is a 'clone for windows 3.1'. This is a 16 bit version of Windows.
Office 97 is written for Windows 9x. This is a 32 bits version of
windows. By the way office 97 doesn't run on Windows 3.x.
There are two possibilities. You can use vmware for
http://www.vmware.com/ or you use office 4.2."

Here is a cut & paste from Linuxberg:       Remeber Wine is still Beta, so
it might not fly so well.... Good luck.  :-)


                              Wine
                              Version: Stable 990328
                              Revision Date: March 28, 1999
                              Byte Size: 3,168,647
                              License: BSD
                              Home Page: http://www.winehq.com/
                              Binaries: RPM, libc5
                              Description: Wine is an implementation of the
Windows 3.x and
                              Win32 APIs on top of X and Unix. Think of Wine
as a Windows
                              compatibility layer. Wine provides both a
development toolkit
                              (Winelib) for porting Windows sources to Unix
and a program loader,
                              allowing unmodified Windows 3.1/95/NT binaries
to run under Intel
                              Unixes. Wine works on most popular Intel
Unixes, including Linux,
                              FreeBSD, and Solaris. Wine does not require
Microsoft Windows, as
                              it is a completely alternative implementation
consisting of 100%
                              Microsoft Free code, but it can optionally use
native system DLLs if
                              they are available. Wine comes with complete
sources,
                              documentation and examples and is freely
redistributable.
