It's still nowhere near done, but making rapid progress. There is also a newer version than what we have a port for, but I just changed the name of the directory once it was untarred and did make patch && make configure && make build and I's in business. Try http://www.winehq.com/ for more info, or comp.emulators.ms-windows.wine on usenet. Are we by chance working on a FreeBSD windows emulator? That would be welcome news. :) Hope this helps, Doug *** Proud operator, designer and maintainer of the world's largest *** Internet Relay Chat server. 4,168 clients and still growing. :-) *** Try spider.dal.net on ports 6662-4 (Powered by FreeBSD) *** Part of the DALnet IRC network ***
