Do we know what is missing in our emulation? Perhaps this is something I can take a shot at. No I have not tried running wine, I need to look through the man pages on that but had not luck even getting notepad.exe to run under it. I don't have Willows. > No big deal, in any case WABI won't run win32 stuff. I know it does not run win32, that's not what I need. There are two things I wan to run under it, the 16 bit WinNT domain utilities and Stars! the game (I know, I know, but it's a great game we are playing here at the office) -Sean -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sean J.
