37 Linux version 0.99.13 or above
39 FreeBSD-current or FreeBSD 1.1
41 To build Wine, first do a "./Configure" and then a "make". The
42 executable "wine" will be built. "wine" will load and run 16-bit
49 Wine requires you to have a file /usr/local/etc/wine.conf (you can
50 supply a different name when configuring wine) or a file called .winerc
51 in your homedirectory.
53 The formatstyle of this config file is just like a windows .ini file.
55 Here's an explanation of each section:
59 format: <driveletter> = <rootdirectory>
62 This section is used to specify the root directory of each `dos'drive
63 as windows' applications require a dos/mswindows based diskdrive &
66 If you mounted you dos-partition as /dos and installed microsoft windows
67 in c:\windows than you should specify c=/dos in the drives section.
71 format: windows = <directory>
74 Used to specify an different windows directory.
76 format: system = <directory>
77 default: c:\windows\system
79 Used to specify an different system directory.
81 format: temp = <directory>
84 Used to specify a directory where windows applications can store temporary
87 format: path = <directories separated by semi-colons>
88 default: c:\windows;c:\windows\system
90 Used to specify the path which will be used to find executables and DLL's.
92 format: systemresources = <filename>
95 Used to specify the name of sysres.dll, a dll which is used by wine itself.
99 format: com[12345678] = <devicename>
102 Used to specify the devices which are used as com1 - com8.
106 format: lpt[12345678] = <devicename>
109 Used to specify the devices which are used as lpt1 - lpt8.
113 format: file = <filename or CON when logging to stdout>
116 used to specify the file which will be used as logfile.
118 format: exclude = <message names separated by semicolons>
121 Used to specify which messages will be excluded from the logfile.
123 format: include = <message names separated by semicolons>
126 Used to specify which messages will be included in the logfile.
132 When invoking wine, you must specify the entire path to the executable,
135 For example: to run Windows' solitaire:
137 wine sol (using the searchpath to locate the file)
140 wine c:\\windows\\sol.exe (using a dosfilename)
142 wine /usr/windows/sol.exe (using a unixfilename)
144 note: the path of the file will also be added to the path when
145 a full name is supplied on the commandline.
147 Have a nice game of solitaire, but be careful. Emulation isn't perfect.
148 So, occassionally it will crash.

529 "kernel.spec" for examples of how to use the build program.
531 WHAT'S NEW with version 0.0.1:
533 - Eric Youngdale contributed countless improvements in memory
534 efficiency, bug fixes, and relocation.
535 - The build program has been completed. It now lets you specify
536 how the main DLL entry point should interface to your emulation

538 specifications is included in the file "build-spec.txt".
539 - The code to dispatch builtin DLL calls is complete, but untested.
