Hmm, now I see that IStorage16 and LPSTORAGE16 are defined in dlls/ole32/ifs.h and the structures they point to probably don't have the same layout as their 32bit equivalents. So it would probably make more sense to refer to those types in the documentation. Would the attached patch be ok? (LPOLECLIENTSITE16 is not defined yet in ifs.h or elsewhere but I guess that will come) -- Francois Gouget fgouget(a)free.fr http://fgouget.free.fr/ 145 = 1! + 4! + 5!

The interface itself is the same, but the calling conventions really are not. So this is more of a programming detail. > >So LPSTORAGE16 would be more fitting I think. > > You mean in the documentation?

No, I meant that I did switch to SEGPTR because of it. Anyway, its fine as is. :) Ciao, Marcus

Re: WineHQ: Default font

by James Liggett

I agree. Bitstream Vera looks awful with antialiasing turned off. (using Freetype bytecode interpreter) I've been wishing that the font be changed to something more generic (I also thing Arial would work good) for about a year now.

WineHQ: Default font

by Christian Britz

Hi all, I noticed a little possibility to improve www.winehq.org with very little effort: I am talking about the default font for the website. if you look at http://www.winehq.org/winehq_styles.css you will easily see that the default font is "bitstream vera sans", followed by "verdana" and "arial" if vera is not available. Despite the fact that MS might be considered evil by some kids, Verdana and Arial look _much_ better and professional than Vera. I even removed Vera from my system just tomake the homepage look better and mor profesional. I would suggest that the responsible people switch the default font to Arial, which is also available on most Unix systems. No Offence meant! Regards, Christian

For the "Who's Who" I will need a short description of who you are, where your from, when you started working on wine, and what aerie's you work on. You can look at other entries for a good example.. http://www.winehq.org/site/who http://www.winehq.org/site/acknowledgement This is what I have thus far for my next update.
