Running Wine on Windows PC for software distribution?

Post by ClassMaker »

Hi there, I realise this is might sound like a strange request, but I've written some software under Windows and have been asked on numerous occasions if I could provide a Mac version. Wine appears to be the best application to convert Windows exe programs to Mac dmg(?) files, but since I don't have access to a Mac myself, I would like to convert my program on my PC and distribute it that way.

Is it possible to use Wine (or one of the variants) on my PC to convert my exe file to a Mac compatible version so I can distribute it without the users needing to do it?

If not, are there other programs out there that will?

Thanks,

Andrew

First: Wine doesn't run on Windows.

Wine has been used to port Windows apps to MacOSX. The people to ask about that are Codeweavers; they are the experts. https://www.codeweavers.com/porting
