Hi, I have a windows app that allows an old dos program that will only print to LPT, to redirect to a USB printer. I was able to use this in native windows. 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. Looking in the windows\system32 directory I see notepad and progman, both of which run and look reasonable. What I really want to do is to run a command window, i.e. cmd.exe. Even though it is there, when I attempt to execute

Hello, Downloaded and installed Wine to run an old DOS program (database gui for Clipper5 called dbu.exe). The layout of Wine is well thought out. Anyway, the problem is the following that I just have a blank window. I ran the code (found that in the forum, thankyou) for old 16bit programs first: sudo sysctl -w vm.mmap_min_addr=0 This is the terminal readout: paul at paul-asus-laptop:~$ wine

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. Some of these batch files call DOS programs and some call Win32 console programs. Unfortunately I have a few that has calls to both a DOS and a Win32 console program. The problem

I am not very experienced with the MSDOS command line and even less so with wine. I am working on a realtime embedded C project and must, for the time being, use DOS command line tools.
