Summary : An MS Windows Emulator
Description :
Wine is a compatibility layer capable of running Windows
applications. Instead of simulating internal Windows logic like a
virtual machine or emulator, Wine translates Windows API calls into
POSIX calls on-the-fly, eliminating the performance and memory
penalties of other methods and allowing you to cleanly integrate
Windows applications into your desktop.
This WINE flavor contains the "staging" development patchset
on top of the regular Wine release.
You can run your Windows executables with it and write your Windows
programs under Linux and link against the WINE libraries. It is not
necessary to have a Windows installation to run WINE.
Refer to /usr/share/doc/packages/wine/README.SUSE. There is more
documentation available in that directory. Read 'man wine' for further
information.
You can invoke wine by entering 'wine program.exe'. Configure it by
running 'winecfg'.
