You don't have to worry about X11 with Wineskin, or what someone has installed on their machine when you move it around, it just moves and works because, like Crossover, X11 is all built in. ahso wrote: > > why complicate stuff? simply providing a current wine binary would be more useful. There are several limitations in Wine to how it would run on OSX. Right now, making a binary would be easy, but there is no GUI support at all, and it will would be completely command line. With Wineskin you can get the latest versions to use downloaded and ready to go with a click of a couple buttons in Wineskin Winery, or even download and patch up Wine source code and have it build a version to use from source.... no need to wait on official releases, but you can. This makes it great for customizing and getting an app working how you want, and have a finished .app that can easily move from computer to computer and work fine.
