Hello all,
first of all congratulation to all the wine stuff for the great job.
I was trying to run some old 16 bit executables using wine (darwine) for mac, but from what i understand darwine is still not able to execute those exe.
On Linux, doing
wine TASM.EXE
works fine,
under mac, typing the same command (but using darwine) i get
fixme:module:wine_load_dos_exe DOS executables not supported on this platform
winevdm: can't exec 'Z:\Users\spectrum\bcc\rtm.exe': invalid program file
i was wandering if this feature would be implemented in the future, and if exist some alternative.
I don't know if there is an effort to implement DOS support under the
Mac. I know that the Darwine folks are not working on this and the
people (including myself) who do Darwine builds are not.
I think i cannot use dosbox, since i need to invoke "wine tasm.exe" from some gnu makefiles.
What are you building? If you are building a DOS executable, then
dosbox should serve the purpose.
