This is, how pcb.exe fares. When called by wine, the binary exits after about a second and a few error messages. see below. When called with the CMD tool of winXP in a Virtualbox, the GUI comes up fine. But there are glitches and a show stopper:
* Zoom in does not work -- neither with the z key, nor with the mouse wheel. Panning with the right mouse seems to be fine, though. After I made the canvas smaller than the window, by fiddling with the sizes in preference, the z key did zoom. But it did so only to fit the window. No more zooming in. The mouse wheel still did nothing. * The radio buttons of the route style disappear, if the mouse leaves them to the left. They keep being visible, if the mouse cursor goes down. * the binary does not give the list of options when called with -h or with /h . There was no output on the CND line. --------------------minipack-pcb.exe-with-wine------------------------- kmk@bibo:/tmp$ wine /usr/local/src/pcb/pcb-for-windows/minipack/result/bin/pcb.exe (pcb.exe:26): GLib-WARNING **: Passing a non-NULL package to g_win32_get_package_installation_directory() is deprecated and it is ignored.
