Introduction
Due to non wine edits, this page is protected so only members can edit. If you want software listed and are too shy, drop a note in the discussion page.
If you are using Wine, please add your software to the Wine Application Database. Wine Database is the official source of information. Maintainers for Software with the Official Wine Application Database are welcome to add any information found in this wiki. We will endeavor to always link to software in the official database and maintainers are also welcome to add a link to this wiki. This area of the Wine-Wiki endeavors to direct to and educate users about the application database. It also allows those who are shy to freely post tips they have found.
If you are a wine beginner, you probably should go and read some of the relevant information on the Tips and Tricks Page which will introduce you to using wine...
For those trying a game with wine, you will find the following links informative:
- Wine_InstallShield
- Advanced Wine User Information - Variations of Running Wine with or without X
- Winecfg
- winetricks
How to make an entry in the wiki
You can add an entry on this page like this [[My program's name]]
Then when you click Show Preview you will recognise the name is in Red. A red entry, is a link to a blank page. If you save the page and then click on the name, a new page is created for you and the original link will change to a blue colour.
Are there any tips for writing a page?
Yes, there is a couple of features of wiki's that may take a little getting used to.
- The first is that anyone can change your page! This is a little unsettling at first, but when you realize the people who change it are trying to add their tips and hard won knowledge, you may start to see the power of the wiki. If everyone gives a little coin, eventually you will have a treasure.
- When writing, the wiki will remove one blank line.
You can see this if you click the edit tab for this page. This line is actually written across two lines! The wiki has removed it. When you wish to make a paragraph, you will need to make two blank lines.
like so.(click edit to have a look - Click Cancel when you are finished)
What to type on a new page?
Likely you will want to add an introduction, so type =introduction= , add a few brief notes and then click Show Preview
What if I dont like what I wrote?
That is the beauty of a wiki - just change it, or leave it and someone else will. To work out how to use formatting just do what you tell your student not to do...Blatently Copy the formatting without remorse or shame! Yes, this is permitted within a wiki such as this one. Find a page which looks like what you want, Click on any edit link or tab and see how they did it and then copy... (This page has a number of formatting tricks - feel free to have a little peek behind the scenes)
