I'm not familiar with command lines, just point and click so I'm sure this will be a struggle for me. What do I do now to make windows programs work? What is the first step to do? I've tried "help" and the instructions are Greek to me. Be honest, if this isn't for a computer illiterate just say so, I won't be offended. > Thank you for your time... > Captain_MDS > > > What specific Windows software do you need to use? Usually, you can just click the .exe and see if it will install. If there is a problem you can contact the developer of the software and ask if Wine is a supported platform (just like they support other Windows implementations, such as 2000, ME, and XP). -- Dotan Cohen http://bido.com http://what-is-what.com Please CC me if you want to be sure that I read your message.
