But Wine does not seem to be able to launch a dos box like windows could. The program is at: http://www.dos2usb.com/download.htm Unless there is some other way to redirect an LPT port? Thanks Bob

Regarding WINE support for DOS apps: Is there some fundamental reason why WINE could not be made to support old DOS apps (like Warcraft), or is it just a matter of missing libraries and such? In other words, is there a reason why DosBox, etc. are full hardware emulators, or why full DOS library support in WINE still wouldn't be enough? Thanks, -- Joel Parker

I have a new EeePC from ASUS with Xandros version of linux installed. I have installed wine, and believe that the installation works for at least some windows programs.

Even though it is there, when I attempt to execute

I have several batch files from my windows installation that I've been using for many years, and I wonder what's the best way to transfer them to a Linux machine, without having to rewrite them as shell scripts.

A lawyer in California is trying to change to linux. In CA, there are a number of programs required by the courts, and so far none are ported to linux at any price. His reason for wishing to change has to do with the fact that Microsoft now controls his access to his own files, and he finds this unacceptable. I tried one of his apps, an old DOS version of Abacus. Using the WINe with Redhat
