.TH WINE 1 "May 2002" "@PACKAGE_STRING@" "Windows On Unix"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
wine \- run Windows programs on Unix
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.BI "wine " "[wine_options] " "[--] " "program " "[arguments ... ]"
|
|
.PP
|
|
For instructions on passing arguments to Windows programs, please see the
|
|
.B
|
|
PROGRAM/ARGUMENTS
|
|
section of the man page.
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B wine
|
|
loads and runs the given program, where the program is a DOS, Windows
|
|
3.x, or Win32 executable (x86 binaries only).
|
|
.PP
|
|
For debugging wine, use
|
|
.B winedbg
|
|
instead.
|
|
.PP
|
|
For running CUI executables (Windows console programs), use
|
|
.B wineconsole
|
|
instead of
|
|
.B wine.
|
|
This will display all the output in a separate windows (this requires X11 to
|
|
run). Not using
|
|
.B wineconsole
|
|
for CUI programs will only provide very limited console support, and your
|
|
program might not function properly.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.B wine
|
|
currently runs a growing list of applications written for all kinds of
|
|
Windows versions >= Win2.0, e.g. Win3.1, Win95/98, NT.
|
|
Older, simpler applications work better than newer, more complex ones.
|
|
Using Windows ME or Win2000 components with Wine is more problematic than
|
|
using none at all or the ones from older Windows versions.
|
|
A large percentage of the API has been implemented,
|
|
although there are still several major pieces of work left to do.
|
|
.SH REQUIREMENTS AND INSTALLATION
|
|
Read the README file in the Wine source distribution and the
|
|
.BR wine.conf (5)
|
|
man page to know what Wine requires and how it is installed from
|
|
source.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I --debugmsg [xxx]#name[,[xxx1]#name1]
|
|
Turn debugging messages on or off.
|
|
.RS +7
|
|
.PP
|
|
xxx is optional and can be one of the following:
|
|
.I err,
|
|
.I warn,
|
|
.I fixme,
|
|
or
|
|
.I trace.
|
|
If xxx is not specified, all debugging messages for the specified
|
|
channel are turned on. Each channel will print messages about a particular
|
|
component of
|
|
.B wine.
|
|
# can be either + or - to switch the specified channel on or off
|
|
respectively. If there is no
|
|
.I xxx
|
|
part before it, a leading + can be omitted. Note that spaces are not
|
|
allowed anywhere in the string.
|
|
.PP
|
|
For instance:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.I --debugmsg warn+all
|
|
will turn on all warning messages (recommended for debugging)
|
|
.br
|
|
.I --debugmsg warn+dll,+heap
|
|
will turn on DLL warning messages and all heap messages.
|
|
.br
|
|
.I --debugmsg fixme-all,warn+cursor,+relay
|
|
will turn off all FIXME messages, turn on cursor warning messages, and turn
|
|
on all relay messages (API calls).
|
|
.br
|
|
.I --debugmsg +relay
|
|
will turn on all relay messages. For more control on including or excluding
|
|
functions and dlls from the relay trace look into the [Debug] section
|
|
of the wine configuration file.
|
|
.PP
|
|
For more information on debugging messages, see the
|
|
.I Running Wine
|
|
chapter of the Wine User Guide.

|
.SH PROGRAM/ARGUMENTS
|
|
The program name may be specified in DOS format (
|
|
.I
|
|
C:\(rs\(rsWINDOWS\(rs\(rsSOL.EXE)
|
|
or in Unix format (
|
|
.I /msdos/windows/sol.exe
|
|
). You may pass arguments to the program being executed by adding them
|
|
to the end of the command line invoking
|
|
.B wine
|
|
(such as: wine notepad C:\(rs\(rsTEMP\(rs\(rsREADME.TXT).
|
|
Note that you need to '\(rs' escape special characters (and spaces) when invoking Wine via
|
|
a shell, e.g.
|
|
.PP
|
|
wine C:\(rs\(rsProgram\(rs Files\(rs\(rsMyPrg\(rs\(rstest.exe
|
|
.PP
|
|
Command line processing goes as
|
|
follows: first
|
|
.B wine
|
|
checks whether one or more of the above mentioned
|
|
.B wine
|
|
options have been specified. These
|
|
are removed from the command line, which is passed to the windows program. You can use
|
|
the parameter
|
|
.I --
|
|
to indicate that
|
|
.B wine
|
|
should stop command line processing. This is needed in case a windows program understands
|
|
an option that is usually interpreted (and thus removed from the command line)
|
|
by
|
|
.B wine.
|
|
For example, if you want to execute
|
|
.B wine
|
|
with the options
|
|
.I --debugmsg +module
|
|
and if
|
|
.B wine
|
|
should run the program
|
|
.I myapp.exe
|
|
with the arguments
|
|
.I --display 3d somefile
|
|
, then you could use the following command line to invoke
|
|
.B wine:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.I wine --debugmsg +module -- myapp.exe --display 3d somefile
|
|
.PP
|
|
Note that in contrast to previous versions of
|
|
.B wine,
|
|
you must not pass
|
|
program name and program option in one argument to
|
|
.B wine.
|
|
To run more
|
|
than one windows program, just execute
|
|
.B wine
|
|
once with the name of each program as argument.
|
|
.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
|
|
.B wine
|
|
makes the environment variables of the shell from which
|
|
.B wine
|
|
is started accessible to the windows/dos processes started. So use the
|
|
appropriate syntax for your shell to enter environment variables you need.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I WINEPREFIX
|
|
If set, the content of this variable is taken as the name of the directory where
|
|
.B wine
|
|
stores its data (the default is
|
|
.I $HOME/.wine
|
|
). This directory contains also the socket, which is used to communicate with the
|
|
.I wineserver.
|
|
All
|
|
.B wine
|
|
processes using the same
|
|
.B wineserver
|
|
(i.e.: same user) share certain things like registry, shared memory,
|
|
and config file.
|
|
By setting
|
|
.I WINEPREFIX
|
|
to different values for different
|
|
.B wine
|
|
processes, it is possible to run a number of truly independent
|
|
.B wine
|
|
processes.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I WINESERVER
|
|
Specifies the path and name of the
|
|
.B wineserver
|
|
binary. If not set, Wine will try to load
|
|
.B @bindir@/wineserver,
|
|
and if this doesn't exist it will then look for a file named
|
|
"wineserver" in the path and in a few other likely locations.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I WINELOADER
|
|
Specifies the path and name of the
|
|
.B wine
|
|
binary to use to launch new Windows processes. If not set, Wine will
|
|
try to load
|
|
.B @bindir@/wine,
|
|
and if this doesn't exist it will then look for a file named "wine" in
|
|
the path and in a few other likely locations.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I WINEDEBUG
|
|
Turns debugging messages on or off. The syntax of the variable is
|
|
identical to the syntax of the arguments for the --debugmsg option.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I WINEDLLPATH
|
|
Specifies the path(s) in which to search for builtin dlls and Winelib
|
|
applications. This is a list of directories separated by ":". In
|
|
addition to any directory specified in
|
|
.I WINEDLLPATH,
|
|
Wine will also look in
|
|
.B @dlldir@.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I WINEDLLOVERRIDES
|
|
Defines the override type and load order of dlls used in the loading
|
|
process for any dll. The default is set in the configuration
|
|
file. There are currently two types of libraries that can be loaded
|
|
into a process' address space: Native windows dlls (
|
|
.I native
|
|
),
|
|
.B wine
|
|
internal dlls (
|
|
.I builtin
|
|
). The type may be abbreviated with the first letter of the type (
|
|
.I n, b
|
|
). Each sequence of orders must be separated by commas.
|
|
.br
|
|
Each dll may have its own specific load order. The load order
|
|
determines which version of the dll is attempted to be loaded into the
|
|
address space. If the first fails, then the next is tried and so
|
|
on. Multiple libraries with the same load order can be separated with
|
|
commas. It is also possible to use specify different loadorders for
|
|
different libraries by separating the entries by ";".
|
|
.br
|
|
Examples:
|
|
.RS
|
|
.TP
|
|
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="comdlg32,commdlg=n,b"
|
|
.br
|
|
Try to load comdlg32 and commdlg as native windows dll first and try
|
|
the builtin version if the native load fails.
|
|
.TP
|
|
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="shell,shell32=n;c:\(rs\(rsfoo\(rs\(rsbar\(rs\(rsbaz=b"
|
|
.br
|
|
Try to load the libraries shell and shell32 as native windows dlls. Furthermore, if
|
|
an application request to load c:\(rsfoo\(rsbar\(rsbaz.dll load the builtin library baz.
|
|
.TP
|
|
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="comdlg32,commdlg=b,n;shell,shell32=b;comctl32,commctrl=n"
|
|
.br
|
|
Try to load comdlg32 and commdlg as builtin first and try the native version
|
|
if the builtin load fails; load shell32/shell always as builtin and
|
|
comctl32/commctrl always as native.
|
|
.br
|
|
Note: It is wise to keep dll pairs (comdlg32/commdlg, shell/shell32, etc.)
|
|
having exactly the same load order. This will prevent mismatches at runtime.
|
|

.TP
|
|
.I DISPLAY
|
|
Specifies the X11 display to use.
|
|
