Wine Improvement, Now Runs e-sword!
Hi, I use Linux Mint 5 Elyssa. It is my best Linux experience. I tried Wine about 10 months back, and it could not run a windows free ware program called e-sword, but this April 09 the new Wine does. I use e-sword 7.0. Very popular Christian program.
It works running e-sword very well, almost perfect, set in my case in windows 98 mode.
All fonts, pop ups, translations, cut and paste... work fine, no crashes.
I needed this since gnome sword only runs an Arabic Bible and is less feature rich at best.
Very good work to the fellows who make Wine!

I don't know, mine has English, German, French and German bibles. Or rather, those are the only ones I have cared to install, there are many, many more available. Not to mention the numerous commentaries, dictionaries, etc.
