Basically, Corel Wine is just very ooold. But of course it has font server support and a different way of printing support AFAIK (not necessarily a better one, though, since Wine's PostScript printer support is almost perfect), which is why it is still worth trying. Expect it to be really outdated rather soon, though. To say that Corel Wine is "significantly more advanced" is just plain wrong. In fact it's now about 18 months behind the current Wine version. (it doesn't even have DLL separation, for example !) As negative as this may sound, still keep in mind that Corel has done an awfully impressive amount of Wine support. It just doesn't show as much any more as it used to. -- Andreas Mohr, Renningen, Germany In case you need to contact me after expiry of temporary email address: my real address is (initial of first name).(last name)@mailto.de _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@winehq.com http://www.winehq.com/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
