I was goofing off when I should be working and made the following observation.
As I was reading the WWN, I played with an example using mshearts (on Win95
machine). mshearts has a score box that automatically comes up at the end of
each hand. The program has correct behavior except for the the score box.
My wine executable is the Wine-20000526 release.
run in unmanaged mode
wine /mnt/win95/windows/mshearts.exe
at the end of a hand, the score box comes up blank. (Incorrect behavior)
run in desktop mode,
wine --desktop 800x600 /mnt/win95/windows/mshearts.exe
at the end of a hand, the score box contains the current scores. (Correct
behavior)
run in managed mode,
wine --managed /mnt/win95/windows/mshearts.exe
at the end of a hand, the score box contains the current scores. (Correct
behavior)
Obviously a real show stopper for Wine 1.0 release :^)
I am not a windows programmer, so I will not be able to fix this, but someone
might stick this report in a TODO list someplace.
