	* [controls/scroll.c]
	Fixed SCROLL_THUMB painting fixes from Alex Korobka to store the
 	current tracking window.

	* [files/file.c]
	Fixed two file descriptor leaks in FILE_OpenFile().

	* [if1632/relay32.c] [loader/module.c] [loader/pe_image.c]
	  [tools/build.c]
	Replaced LOADEDFILEINFO structure by OFSTRUCT.

	* [memory/atom.c]
	Reload the pointer to the atom table in ATOM_GetTable() and
 	ATOM_AddAtom() in case the LOCAL_Alloc() calls caused the table to
 	move in linear memory.

Fri Mar  1 11:57:13 1996  Frans van Dorsselaer <dorssel@rulhm1.leidenuniv.nl>

	* [include/callback.h]
	Added support for CallWordBreakProc().

	* [controls/edit.c]
	New caret handling (really efficient / fast).
	Implemented EM_SETWORDBREAKPROC and EM_GETWORDBREAKPROC.
	Fixed EM_SETFONT so it now also creates a proper new caret.

Wed Feb 28 22:03:34 1996  Daniel Schepler  <daniel@frobnitz.wustl.edu>

	* [controls/desktop.c] [misc/main.c] [windows/event.c] [windows/win.c]
	Added WM_DELETE protocol to top-level windows.

	* [controls/scroll.c]
	Fixed a problem which caused slow scrolling to continue	uncontrollably.

	* [misc/exec.c]
	Implemented ExitWindows().

	* [windows/win.c]
	Set top-level owned windows to be transient.

Wed Feb 28 19:13:22 1996  Ulrich Schmid  <uschmid@mail.hh.provi.de>

	* [programs/progman/*]
	Added a program manager.

Wed Feb 28 18:38:01 1996  Duncan C Thomson <duncan@spd.eee.strath.ac.uk>

	* [resources/sysres_Eo.c]
	Added support for Esperanto [Eo] language.

Wed Feb 28 00:23:00 1996  Thomas Sandford <t.d.g.sandford@prds-grn.demon.co.uk>

	* [if1632/user32.spec]
	Added EndDialog, GetDlgItem, GetDlgItemInt, SetDlgItemInt,

	* [win32/init.c]
	Added task.h to includes. GetModuleHandleA() - return hInstance
	if called with NULL parameter. Freecell needs this. NOTE this
	may indicate a problem with differentiation between hModule and
	hInstance within Wine.

	* [win32/resource.c]
	FindResource32() and LoadResource32() - Removed #if 0's around
	conversion from hInstance to hModule. See remarks above.

	* [win32/string32.c]
	WIN32_UniLen() - removed stray semicolon.

Tue Feb 27 21:05:18 1996  Jim Peterson <jspeter@birch.ee.vt.edu>
	
	* [windows/caret.c]
	Set blink rate with call to GetProfileInt().

	* [rc/winerc.c]
	In new_style(), made initial flag settings WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE
 	instead of 0.  This seems to correspond to Borland's defaults, and
 	the flags can be unset by using the (rather obtuse) "| NOT WS_CHILD"
	or "| NOT WS_VISIBLE" technique in the *.rc file.

	* [win32/time.c]
	In GetLocalTime() and GetSystemTime(), used tv_sec field of result
 	returned by gettimeofday() instead of making second call to
 	time().  This eliminates clock jitter if the seconds change
 	between the two calls (rare, but possible).

	* [include/wintypes.h]
	Added "#define _far" and "#define _pascal".

	* [windows/win.c]
	Added function GetDesktopHwnd().

	* [include/xmalloc.h]
	Removed the '#ifdef HAVE_STDLIB_H' structure, since it seemed to
 	have been removed from 'configure', and was causing redefinition
 	warnings.

Tue Feb 27 19:31:11 1996  Albrecht Kleine <kleine@ak.sax.de>

	* [windows/winpos.c] 
	Added RDW_ALLCHILDREN flag in SetWindowPos (handling SWP_FRAMECHANGED)
	to force a repaint when setting menu bars with different rows.

Sun Feb 25 21:15:00 1996 Alex Korobka <alex@phm30.pharm.sunysb.edu>

	* [windows/syscolors.c] [controls/scroll.c]
	Fixed DrawFocusRect pen and SCROLL_THUMB painting.

History
1. INTRODUCTION

Wine is a program that allows running MS-Windows programs under X11.
It consists of a program loader, that loads and executes an
MS-Windows binary, and of an emulation library that translates Windows
API calls to their Unix/X11 equivalent.

Wine is free software. See the file LICENSE for the details.
Basically, you can do anything with it, except claim that you wrote it.


2. COMPILATION

You must have one of:

	Linux version 0.99.13 or above
	NetBSD-current
	FreeBSD-current or FreeBSD 1.1

You also need to have libXpm installed on your system. The sources for
it are probably available on the ftp site where you got Wine. They can
also be found on ftp.x.org and all its mirror sites.

To build Wine, first do a "./configure" and then a "make depend; make".
The executable "wine" will be built.  "wine" will load and run 16-bit
Windows executables.

To upgrade to a new release by using a patch file, first cd to the
top-level directory of the release (the one containing this README
file). Then do a "make clean", and patch the release with:

    gunzip -c patch-file | patch -p1

where "patch-file" is the name of the patch file (something like
Wine-yymmdd.diff.gz). You can then re-run "./configure", and then
run "make depend; make".


3. SETUP

Once Wine has been built correctly, you can do "make install"; this
will install the wine executable and the man page.

Wine requires you to have a file /usr/local/etc/wine.conf (you can
supply a different name when configuring wine) or a file called .winerc
in your home directory.

The format of this file is explained in the man page. The file
wine.ini contains a config file example.


4. RUNNING PROGRAMS

When invoking Wine, you must specify the entire path to the executable,
or a filename only.

For example: to run Windows' solitaire:

	wine sol		   (using the searchpath to locate the file)
	wine sol.exe

	wine c:\\windows\\sol.exe  (using a dosfilename)

	wine /usr/windows/sol.exe  (using a unixfilename)

Note: the path of the file will also be added to the path when
      a full name is supplied on the commandline.

Have a nice game of solitaire, but be careful.  Emulation isn't perfect.
So, occasionally it may crash.


5. GETTING MORE INFORMATION

The best place to get help or to report bugs is the Usenet newsgroup
comp.emulators.ms-windows.wine. The Wine FAQ is posted there every
month.

If you add something, or fix a bug, please send a patch ('diff -u'
format preferred) to julliard@lrc.epfl.ch for inclusion in the next
release.
