[Xastir] AGW under WINE ?

[Ray Wells]

Tony,

Can't help with AGW under wine but then I've never liked AGW or thought 
much of it. To each his own.

What I did succeed in getting going under wine, and the relevance here 
is what I had to do to get it to install, was OTSDJ, a program used for 
radio station automation. For whatever reason, wine couldn't create 
registry entries so I exported the registry entry from a WinXP install 
and imported that into wine. If you intend trying this you must export 
the registry entry as a pre-WinXP format (Win95 or 98). XP format 
doesn't create a plain text file.

The tools to do this are in both Windoze - note the correct spelling :-) 
- and wine, for exporting/importing.

I need to point out that my fix for OTSDJ isn't a solution for a number 
of other apps I've tried, such as Winpack and Cool Edit Pro, which seem 
to have deeper issues -sigh!.

I share Curt's question about what Linux doesn't do. I can think of many 
things Windoze can't do that Linux does with ease, but I can't think of 
a single thing the other way around.
