running windows executable in linux
If anybody knows how can one run the .exe files in linux. I don't know if it is possible or not. Please enlighten me.
Thanks in advance Anamika |
Why, for heaven sakes, would you like to do that?! You can emualte a Windows environement with Wine.

The link is wrong, it's http://www.winehq.com
However, don't use Wine if you don't need it. There are normally freely available native apps that will do what you want. |
Thanks for the link correction. I never used Wine ;)

I have installed this software many times.But I failed at last.So it is difficult to install this software.What is your feeling of it?
|
it sucks... go native.
|
i think winex is good though.. even though it is not native :D
|
just to clear it up, Wine Is Not an Emulator
people keep calling it an emulator....even though the name itself means the above. |
its so bloody complicated to get an app working in wine, that generally its not worth the time and effort, unless you *really* need it. for example, i do web stuff for work, so i have an install of IE6 on my pc. i just use it to see how the page will look/act in IE, i use mozilla as my web browser.
although, wineX is gorgeous. i have warcraft III running with it flawlessly. :) |
