Right you are. So, what says our fearless leader? It seems unfortunate for all of this hard work to go to waste. Also, it's not like these are undocumented or rarely-used API's, wine would probably benefit from these significantly. --- Fun stuff: I have recently had some smashing successes with wine. Word 2002, and even (with a native comctl32/commctrl; looks like some undocumented wierdness going on with status bar in there...) Frontpage 2002 seem to work (at a glance, with my recently submitted patch). I did have to do some serious hand-holding to bootstrap the installer. But once it gets going it more-or-less "just works." Awesome. Even more fun: I just tried the 1964 Nintendo 64 emulator under wine. It runs surprisingly well. It's open source so it might be a good target for more experimentation... I used v. 0.84. -- gmt "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace.
