README update offer
by Christian Britz 13 Mar '04

13 Mar '04

Hi, I know that I was pointed to the README file for my first german translation "because it is pretty stable and no major overhauls are planned". ;-) Nevertheless, I refuse to not offer you a little bit of my time to update some parts of the README and README.de files (the other translators would have to follow because I don't speak their languages well enough). I have two major update favorites: 1) Fabian Cenedese and others have made some good remarks about parts of the README being not precise enough or a little bit wrong / outdated. I would like to work on these sections. 2) Someone on the ML of my local LUG asked a rather simple question that would fit to the "quick start" section IMO. He asked how to include original MS fonts into wine because some Windows application seems to demand them being present (physically). A short explanation of this and the possibility to use native DLL files would perfect to a README file I think. Using native files certainly is not a primary goal of wine development; on the other hand it could help new users or users with tricky applications a lot. I will wait for your positive or negative feedback before I will post to wine-patches. If updating the README at this time is not wanted at all, please let me also know. I would offer then my help later. Christian

AFAIK ./configure make depend make has never built the docs, at least since I use wine. Ivan.

If anyone out there is currently working on animated icons/cursors in cursoricon.c, I'd like to try to help in any way I can. I'm not really sure where to start on my own though. Thanks in advance. -- Joel Konkle-Parker Webmaster [Ballsome.com] E-mail [jjk3(a)msstate.edu]

Re: wine/dlls/comctl32 rebar.c

Which version of IE are you using, and what is > the exact problem you are seeing? It is v6.0.2800.1106 The problem is that all of the Search, Favorites, Media and History sidebars seem to open the rebar in a very tiny width (it depends on which is being displayed). For example, the rebar in the history sidebar has a width of 4 pixels. The Media sidebar (shown in attachment) is slightly better with a width of 16 pixels. BTW, it is definitely this patch. I have tried reversing the other rebar patch and it made absolutely no difference. > A screenshot maybe? Attached. Rob

I recommend that it be reversed until this issue has been investigated and resolved. Rob

In Vino Veritas!
by Mike Hearn 12 Mar '04

12 Mar '04

Hi guys, So, just to wind up Alexandre [1], I wrote the following script. If you enjoy, as I do, sugar and all things sweet, you may like it. It probably screws up parameter passing entirely, but most win32 apps don't use them so no problem! Usage: vino +snoop,-imm foobar.exe vino ole32,oleaut32,rpcrt4=n +relay whatever.exe 2>/tmp/log Have fun! thanks -mike [1] OK I admit, I wrote this script for myself before I read Alexandres reply. Obviously this is a developer only script, it's not intended to be a part of Wine itself.
