installing Windows XP version of Wordpad

Post by rockwallaby »

I would like to use the Windows XP version of Worpad with Wine in Linux.

There are some notes here:

https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager. ... n&iId=1757

-but this is my first time using Wine. Could someone walk me through the process?

I made copies of the following files from Windows XP:

wordpad.exe
mfc42u.dll
msvcrt.dll
riched20.dll

3a. If wordpad is running, by happy
3b. If wordpad isn't, read the output and try to fix the error
