This is a good summary of where we're at - nicely done Octavian. The next step is cross-device blitting, which is what Alexandre and I are working on at the moment. Huw.

You forgetting, that users can select multiple drivers in winecfg now. And that's what some people have in their registry. The actual approach is seems fishy to me as well. The reason ALSA driver is 1st is because most systems has it as the main sound subsystem. Putting something [oss] first in the list, and failing if it wasn't explicitly asked for defeats the whole idea about something being default, and having alternate fallback(s). With same logic one would add all other sound drivers and make them fail, unless explicitly asked for. Vitaliy.

Did you use thin/normal non-breaking spaces? Keep in mind that the space "width" and breakability rules change slightly between e.g. France and French-speaking Canada, and that some (most?) translation tools don't allow you to easily view/enter those characters. TBH I'm not quite sure it's worth the trouble ATM Frédéric

For the few I've seen, the approach taken by Huw is too different from mine to have both coexistent, and the infrastructure changes would make the porting quite complicated and, which is worse, too dependent on code base changes to be maintainable by me. The only stuff that could be done would be to submit patches to enhance current graphics primitives.... but I guess Huw has already something in mind, and I've got too few spare time :-) Again, for what (very few indeed) I've understood from patches titles, some low-level primitives were exported from winex11 - gdi32 drivers, a stuff that was told me "impossible" when I developed my engine and that will make easy to solve the biggest problem remaining on it, the mixed DIB-DDB conversions in an efficient way. So, I'll wait to see what happens to Huw engine. A pity because latest progress in wine solved many other problems unrelated to DIB. Autocad users can just hope that fonts primitives will be embedded soon :-) Ciao Max

It would give you a good start if Huw decides that your code is better than his! James
