No. We are currently working on integrating an x86 emulator in wine in order to run Win32 exe on a PowerPC Box. But on Darwin-x86 a Win32 .exe should run within wine with a limited effort. >From the User Guide: Currently Darwine consists in a Mac OS X port of Wine, which includes Xcode support, and Finder integration. You can download it here. ("here" being http://darwine.opendarwin.org/download.php ) The Darwine project aims to run Windows Application on Mac OS X, in the near future. Wine itself does not compile or run on PPC architecture (we'll see what happens when Apple goes to the Intel architecture). This is why there's a separate porting project, after all. >From the Wine FAQ: What do I need in order to use Wine? 3.1. Under what hardware platform(s) and operating system(s) will Wine(Lib) run? Wine is being developed specifically to run on the Intel x86 class of CPUs under certain UNIXes that run on this platform. Winelib however is capable of porting the Windows applications source code to other platforms also, not only x86. Thus running Windows binaries on other platforms (e.g. Mac OS X on PowerPC) using just Wine is not possible. You would have to either run Wine in an emulated x86 environment or take the Windows application source code and recompile it using Winelib. These are the platforms supported by Wine. Winelib support for other platforms keeps evolving, so it's not specifically listed here. ---- Mac OS X / Darwin: The Darwine is currently working on porting Wine to the Darwin/x86 platform. Their goal is to eventually make it possible to run x86 Windows applications on Darwin/PPC and then Mac OS X by using Bochs. You need to use the Darwine binary, available from the Darwine download page. Dunno why, since it is apparently not able to run Windows executables. But I would imagine that if there's more information to be found as to what Darwine is capable of at this time, the folks on the darwine-devel mailing list (http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum=darwine-devel) would be the people to ask. Hope this helps. Holly _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
