WINE is a recursive acronym that stands for: WINE Is Not an Emulator. WINE is an alternative (Linux native) implementation of the Windows APIs. While there may be very little functional difference from the end-user's view-point, there are significant technical differences between an emulator and a native API implementation.

Wine is Windows Emulation. It lets you run most windows programs in Linux. The important thing to remember is that there are better programs in Linux than in windows. But if you have to keep a windows program after you install Linux, Wine can let you keep running some of your old windows programs. _______________________________________________ Kclug mailing list [email protected] http://kclug.org/mailman/listinfo/kclug
