does anyone have experience with using wine to convert applications into native unix api. Especially on the mac operating system this would be very nice because all the unix executables are in a .bundle file. Even when I have taken them out I cannot use them because the design for intel macs is to use them as the are supposed to be used and not on a more unix/linux capable way.
Please this would be very nice to know. I would like very much to port the application notepad-plu s found on its homepage notepad-plus.sourceforge.net
developing unix application with wine under macosx
Once Wine has reached its 1.0 stage to show all that it has achieved the team might want to make an automation of Winelib porting applications to native x11 calls. I personally would like to see this option. Possibly it could be offered after the first successful time that the application is opened, or after every time Wine opens each application, or in the menu-bar, another great option is the way that Darwine tried to have that in a native way not only to x11 but to the individual operating systems as well. I would imagine (from my perspective as only a user) that since this library must be used to convert the individual applications already that making the whole conversion process must not be too much of a difficulty.
You can't convert win32 app into native *NIX app with just a magic tool. Winelib is not exception. You will still have to use Wine to run that program.gat wrote:Once Wine has reached its 1.0 stage to show all that it has achieved the team might want to make an automation of Winelib porting applications to native x11 calls.
