Hi,
I've downloaded Darwine 1.0.4, a Windows emulator for the Mac, but have no luck in actually running it. I've got as far as opening the dmg image and dragging the Darwine folder to the application folder. In the Darwine folder is a darwine.bundle app which does nothing when I click on it. There's also a darwine helper app which opens a small process window which is empty. Anybody can help with this--I've got an Intel Mac.

Thanks,
Jack

Actually it's a wine.bundle app and a wine helper app.

Ah,now I've got it. It's simple--just run the windows app you want--don't expect to try to run a windows operating system first. The program then calls x11.

Shouldn't that be IX11?

Ah.

Anyway, I've got the Windows-only Stackview software running on my mac without having to pay a penny for windows, as darwine is open source.

I always thought Windows-emulators were a mistake because they gave software developers another reason not to write software for the Macintosh.

True. But Stackview is a great playing card shuffle and memorization program created by a Café member who has neither the time nor expertise to turn this into a mac program.

So it's nice that it works with this emulator.
