I recently played with trying to run an old win16 application (Ami Pro ) in a 32-bit wine prefix on my 64-bit arch linux box (kernel 3.16, so the 16-bit bug should be gone I think) - unfortunately without success. Is there a "win16 wine prefix"? I tried setting to win 95 or 3.1 using winecfg but that did not help.
I did however get a bit nostalgic (old age I guess
) and I started looking around if there were any OS/2 emulators around but could not find any. However, apparently Windows should have some level of OS/2 compatibilityhttps://www.microsoft.com/resources/doc ... x?mfr=true
What I am curious about is : does Wine support this both for the 1.x (16-bit) and 2.x (32-bit) variants? If not, if there would be interest one might be able to use the open source libraries targetting OS/2 in open watcom as reference material to implement such compatibility.
I am well aware that this is even more "fringe use case" than win16, but perhaps there are more nostalgic old farts out there
