It won't install under WINE...
It installs fine for me under current wine from git
(roughly wine-0.9.46), so you shouldn't have to futz
around with unpacking it some other way.
Well, I'm still at wine-0.9.34-1, with an upgrade to 0.9.44-1 waiting
along with a bunch of other upgrades. Last time I checked, the upgrade
process made threatening noises like saying it's going to remove
Konqueror, without any reassuring noises about upgrading or
re-installing it. But let's check again - ah, good, no more threatening
noises beyond removing Ardour. After I get done with this and some other
emails, I guess I'll upgrade. I really only use WINE for Ghostview
(produces much more compact and higher-quality PDFs than the Linux tools
do) and IE 5, 5.5 and 6 for testing web sites ...
Still doesn't play on Wine, though, even though I have timidity
installed and working. Here's a log:
~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Voyetra/Introduction to Songwriting$
wine SONGEX.EXE
fixme:mcimidi:MIDI_mciPlay NIY: SMPTE track start 96:0:3 0.0
fixme:mcimidi:MIDI_mciPlay NIY: MIDI port=0, track=1
fixme:mcimidi:MIDI_mciPlay NIY: MIDI channel=0, track=1
IIRC, the "fixme" messages are WINE's way of indicating that the
application called a Windows API system function that is only
implemented as a stub in WINE ...
Quite possibly I don't know what I'm doing, though. I don't use
audio much (beyond what Firefox and Flash inflict on me).
I wasn't interested in using Songwriter. It wasn't that great a program
under Windows - Rosegarden is much better. I was just interested in
seeing if the included PDF version of their "Introduction to
Songwriting" book could be used without Windows - which it can.
