Noobie question - .com files

Post by crow_se »

I know that windows exe files can be run using Wine, but I
have a windows program I would like to run under PCLINOS and the
update/patch is in the form of a .com file. Can a file of this type be
used for the update/patch in Wine ?

Should but doesn't. It's a DOS program - use DOS emulators such as dosbox or dosemu.
