Title: [Linux] NWC success under Wine
Post by: Matt Johnson on 2000-10-08 04:00 AM
Just a short note to say that after a very crude and tiny hack to the Wine source code and a little font magic, I have successfully got NWC running under Wine.

I won't go into the gory details, but those of you who are interested, post here or mail me. If there's sufficient interest I'll document the procedure and get some downloadables together.

Ok, there's a downloadable available with the necessary files and bare bones instructions.

I'll have a look, thanks.

In the meantime here's a post from comp.emulators.ms-windows.wine.

It's a TrueType handling problem as you have seen (the
GetCharABCWidths trace).

I have tried a quick and dirty patch and found that indeed
implementing TrueType correctly should fix this app as the
notes are displayed as a TrueType font.

You can have some hope for the future as - AFAIK - Codeweavers lists
this as a goal for Wine 1.0, and one of the Wine contributors (Huw
Davies) is said to work on it.
