Folks, Here are the lists, formatted in HTML, which Carlos sent out some time ago: http://www.dssd.ca/wine/Wine-SAL.html Mozilla/Netscape seems to have problems with the colors, but Konqy works fine... Help with formatting appreciated. I guess the tasks here are: 1. Identify more Gold apps 2. Fix Silver apps so they can move up to Gold Comments, suggestions, flames? -- Dimi.

WinZip
by Mike Hearn 13 Nov '02

13 Nov '02

OK, I remembered reading about how WinZip was nearly Gold but not quite. There was a problem with the richedit control. If I install the richedit control into Crossover 1.3.1 from here http://www.allerasoft.com/download/ I can view comments in WinZip OK. Unfortunately if I do this (try with the example zip file in the winzip directory) it crashes on exit. I might try some proper traces this afternoon, but is there a reason Wine can't mirror the richedit update program and install it a la DCOM?… [View More]

Cool Edit Pro vs. Wine/WineX

Re: Help support
by Ender 12 Nov '02

12 Nov '02

I'll just add my specific reasoning (plus pro's and con's) for supporting Konq, and some words on how IWebBrowser may be implemented: - BIG Con: The KDE libraries are GPLed. We can ask the team to perhaps allow us to use it under the LGPL. As far as I am aware, the only reason the libraries are under the GPL is because QT is under the GPL. Since one of the major factors in using KHTML/KJS in WINE will be removing the QT dependency, I see no legal problems to it.. only a matter of if they are … [View More]willing. If not, the workaround is to implement it as an executable and just use IWebBrowser to send messages/RPCs/whatever to the executable. Using this as a general approach actually has many benefits anyway: : The browser can be upgraded easily, without having to worry about version conflicts against other DLLs. This is a major plus, IMHO : It's far easier to merge upstream changes, as less major modifications would need to be made to the browser core : The rendering engine CAN be replaced easily between Mozilla, Konq, or any other browser code suitably modified to support our IPC mechanism. Even so, we do need to decide on a default to use in WINE cvs. Any IPC mechinism would simply require IWebBrowser calls to be passed from a fairly stubby DLL and COM interface to the browser. The only real modifications needed to a browser would be to understand these calls, and to be able to render to a specified GDI context/hwnd/whichever. --- Other ideas: - Pro: Startup speed is fantastic, and while Gecko is fast while loaded, I really don't think we can use the method Mozilla uses to keep it fast (always run a configured Gecko instance in the background). I don't think WINE should have the overhead or code mess that it would cause. - Con: KHTML and KJS do have a dependency on QT or at least QT-Embedded. Getting a quick and nasty implementation of KHTML (+KJS, which we will need for DHTML/Javascript support, almost all applications that use IWebBrowser use JS) running will be easy, replacing the QT dependencies with Windows GDI/Commctl calls is somewhat more work. - Pro: I know that KHTML is easy to expand in the realm of supporting other URL schemes (res:// etc will be needed in IWebBrowser). I'm not sure how Gecko's architecture works in this respect. - Ender > > - Gecko: the best (in terms of features/compatability/speed) rendering > > engine around.

[RFC] Better OpenGL separation

Quicken 2000 / edit.c MakeFit() bug...
by Carl Sopchak 11 Nov '02

11 Nov '02

I'm having the following problem with Quicken 2000 Deluxe under wine (CVS as of Thursday morning [and all prior versions]): When I open an investment account, then click on the security name in an existing transaction, and that security name is fairly long (say, 20+ characters), the name gets replaced by the trandaction date! This does not happen with MS Windows. (Before I go any farther, I must say that I know virtually NOTHING about windows programming, and only a small bit more about … [View More]Wine coding and debugging...) After spending two days drudging through --debugmsg +all logs, I think I have a pretty good idea what's happening. It appears that Quicken uses a single Edit Control for all of it's input fields. When the account is opened, the initial editable field is the date of a new transaction. Quicken sets the maximum input length (with EM_LIMITTEXT) to 10. (Makes sense for a date...) This sets buffer_limit in it's EDITSTATE to 10. Now, when you then go and click on the security name in that existing transaction, Quicken uses WM_SETTEXT to set it's value. Under Wine, this fails, because the size of the string is greater than es->buffer_limit (checked near the top of EDIT_MakeFit() in controls/edit.c). Now, EDIT_MakeFit() does notify Quicken with EN_MAXTEXT, but Quicken doesn't seem to respond in any sensible manner (like getting a bigger control and trying again). (I have not followed this path past this point, but I know that the security name gets wiped out...) Quicken will, AFTER issuing the SETTEXT, try to re-size the field with EM_LIMITTEXT to 30, a security name length. I quote from MSDN (EM_LIMITTEXT Message Remarks section): "The EM_LIMITTEXT message limits only the text the user can enter. It does not affect any text already in the edit control when the message is sent, nor does it affect the length of the text copied to the edit control by the WM_SETTEXT message. If an application uses the WM_SETTEXT message to place more text into an edit control than is specified in the EM_LIMITTEXT message, the user can edit the entire contents of the edit control. " So, according to MSDN, the WM_SETTEXT should successfully set the text to the full length, regardless of the value of buffer_limit. I am in the process of making this change and testing it. I guess my main concern at this point is, "Are there any other ramifications to making this change that I should be concerned about?" If anyone wants to point me in a direction here, I'll follow through... Carl [View Less]

Well, I for one (though as i'm not writing the code this is just my comments) would not be willing to choose a rendering engine based on whether it works or not on platform X. Both Mozilla and KHTML work quite well on a large number of platforms. I'd need to know a lot more about why Mozilla doesn't work well on OpenBSD before ruling out gecko - like, is it due to something missing on OpenBSD itself. In particular due to the very few numbers of people using it on the desktop, I'd say if … [View More]Mozilla doesn't work on that platform it's the problem of obsd or mozilla, not Wine. On the other hand, I don't really think Gecko is right for this anyway, so it's something of a moot point. Generally though I'd say that making decisions based on what certain platforms can and cannot do is a bad idea when said platform is in the minority of usage (esp when it's all open source).

Dear Wine, I have been discussing using WINE as an alternate platform for our company as a way of porting our code to Linux. Something I belive is in the interestes of all centient companies.

Question regarding the debate over whether Wine Is Not an Emulator or not..
by Dustin Navea 11 Nov '02

11 Nov '02

In the wine users guide intro it says, and I quote: The former method uses emulation to connect a Windows application to the Wine libraries. You can run your Windows application directly with the emulator, by installing through Wine or by simply copying the Windows executables onto your Linux system. Should I change this or no, because AFAIK, to some people "emulators have not and will not ever un things as fast as the original" and that would give them a bad idea about wine. -Dustin … [View More]

Resolving winelib dll dependencies
by Nix N. Nix 10 Nov '02

10 Nov '02

I have an application that consists of a single DLL and the EXE. I have the sources required for the DLL in one directory and I have used winemaker --dll to create the infrastructure for building the winelib dll. It worked. So, now, I have "nix_ctls.dll.so". My problem is that I cannot, for some reason use nix_ctls.dll.so as I would, say comctl32.dll.so . What I mean is this: The sources for the EXE are in another directory. Both are subdirectories of the "project" directory. The name … [View More]

Fix for bug #688 (documentation building)
by Vincent Béron 10 Nov '02

10 Nov '02

This one I'm not sure which one is better. So I include both patches, but only one should be applied. Functionnally, both produce the exact same html files, although the fix1 creates (by the system's db2html) a directory with images (which are unused). So I'd tend to go with fix2. Please comment, and I'll post the good one to wine-patches. Vincent

RFC: rpcss skeleton prototype #2
by Greg Turner 10 Nov '02

10 Nov '02

This one implements "pseudo-fork" behavior, a main workhorse loop, pseudo-debug log emitter, and command-line interpretation. In particular I'm looking for comments/criticism/flames/etc for: o my handling of NO_NAMELESS_STRUCT... works for me, but how correct will this be, say, under MSVC with Microsoft headers? o I differentiate between "server mode" and "lazy mode"... In lazy mode I assume that I'll have at least one incoming connection (if not I time out after 20 minutes); … [View More]after that, once all endpoints are unmapped (all RPC-specific code is unimplmented, but this is what RPCSS_empty() is supposed to detect) I time out after a short delay (20 sec.) In server mode, I just wait around forever until I'm told to terminate (unimplemented, will be a command-line arg in the tradition of "wineserver -k", processed via the pipe)... reasonable? o Pseudo-debug log emitter: should I be using stderr? is this basically an OK approach? What is the hex number that most real wine debug logs begin with? I'd like to look the same. o Make/autoconf BS o the pseudo-fork crud (RPCSS_spork() and the /^ cmd-line arg.) should I be worried about accidentally invoking the real rpcss.exe? is this an unacceptably stupid approach in general? thanks for your help. diff -ur -x CVS -x 'bigdif*' ../wine.test/configure.ac ./configure.ac --- ../wine.test/configure.ac 2002-11-03 11:50:15.000000000 -0600 +++ ./configure.ac 2002-11-01 18:53:32.000000000 -0600 @@ -1501,6 +1501,7 @@ programs/regedit/Makefile programs/regsvr32/Makefile programs/regtest/Makefile +programs/rpcss/Makefile programs/uninstaller/Makefile programs/view/Makefile programs/wcmd/Makefile diff -ur -x CVS -x 'bigdif*' ../wine.test/programs/Makefile.in ./programs/Makefile.in --- ../wine.test/programs/Makefile.in 2002-11-03 11:50:15.000000000 -0600 +++ ./programs/Makefile.in 2002-11-01 18:53:18.000000000 -0600 @@ -17,6 +17,7 @@ regedit \ regsvr32 \ regtest \ + rpcss \ uninstaller \ view \ wcmd \ @@ -39,6 +40,7 @@ progman \ regedit \ regsvr32 \ + rpcss \ uninstaller \ wcmd \ wineconsole \ @@ -56,6 +58,7 @@ progman \ regedit \ regsvr32 \ + rpcss \ uninstaller \ wcmd \ wineconsole \ @@ -67,6 +70,7 @@ # Symlinks to apps that we want to run from inside the source tree SYMLINKS = \ + rpcss.exe \ wineconsole.exe \ winedbg.exe @@ -115,12 +119,16 @@ # Rules for symlinks +rpcss.exe$(DLLEXT): rpcss/rpcss.exe$(DLLEXT) + $(RM) $@ && $(LN_S) rpcss/rpcss.exe$(DLLEXT) $@ + wineconsole.exe$(DLLEXT): wineconsole/wineconsole.exe$(DLLEXT) $(RM) $@ && $(LN_S) wineconsole/wineconsole.exe$(DLLEXT) $@ winedbg.exe$(DLLEXT): winedbg/winedbg.exe$(DLLEXT) $(RM) $@ && $(LN_S) winedbg/winedbg.exe$(DLLEXT) $@ +rpcss/rpcss.exe$(DLLEXT): rpcss wineconsole/wineconsole.exe$(DLLEXT): wineconsole winedbg/winedbg.exe$(DLLEXT): winedbg --- /dev/null 1969-12-31 18:00:00.000000000 -0600 +++ ./programs/rpcss/Makefile.in 2002-11-03 18:51:44.000000000 -0600 @@ -0,0 +1,15 @@ +TOPSRCDIR = @top_srcdir@ +TOPOBJDIR = ../.. +SRCDIR = @srcdir@ +VPATH = @srcdir@ +MODULE = rpcss.exe +APPMODE = cui +IMPORTS = user32 kernel32 + +C_SRCS = \ + rpcss_main.c + +@MAKE_PROG_RULES@ + +### Dependencies: + --- /dev/null 1969-12-31 18:00:00.000000000 -0600 +++ ./programs/rpcss/README 2002-11-03 18:52:12.000000000 -0600 @@ -0,0 +1,23 @@ +rpcss README + +rpcss, copyright 2002, Greg Turner +rpcss is to be distributed under the LGPL/X11-MIT licenses +See the Wine License for further information. + +Wine needs a server whose role is somewhat like that +of rpcss.exe in windows. + +Enjoy. + +KNOWN BUGS / TODO: + + o Service hooks are unimplemented (if you bother to implement + these, also implement net.exe, at least for "net start" and + "net stop" (should be pretty easy I guess, assuming the rest + of the services API infrastructure works (which net.exe should + assume, even if the API is lean or bugged))). + + o Is supposed to use RPC, not random kludges, to map endpoints. + + o Who knows?

Re: int21 move a8

Again, no full review, just quickly browsed through the patch. I have a feeling that I have just scratched the surface regarding this patch series and it would need a full review before it can be accepted. Function 0x40 change in winedos/int21.c breaks DOS VGA text console. Function 0x3f handling drops WIN16_hread which used to check for segment size. That check seemed to be for running buggy Win16 programs. At least I wouldn't have courage to delete this kind of checks. -- Jukka Heinonen <http://www.iki.fi/jhei/>

Re: GetCurrentObject
by steve.lustbader＠philips.com 09 Nov '02

GetCurrentObject returns 0, but as far as it knows, it is returning successfully. This is because in the line case OBJ_BITMAP: ret = dc->hBitmap; break; dc->hBitmap is 0, although dc is a valid DC. The HDC that is passed to GetCurrentObject to get dc is obtained by calling CWindow::BegingPaint(PAINTSTRUCT *) from a class derived from ATL's CWindow. I'm guessing that this is where the problem is probably coming from - the app is written in C++ with ATL. -Steve I've seen this … [View More]

wine button
by Mike Hearn 09 Nov '02

09 Nov '02

Here is my first attempt. I'm hardly an ace designer, so feel free to criticize, tell me to junk it etc. I did try at first to make a browser style button, but it was very hard to make the wine logo fit in a way that didn't look odd, as it's largely a vertical type of logo. Also, is the Windows logo usable? I'd assume it's trademarked or something, but i've seen the 4 colour blocks used in for instance icon overlays in KDE.

This is based upon the Wine 0.8 TODO v0.2 send earlier to the list. It is important to get a comprehensive list of what needs to be done, in order to have a successful 0.9 release.

As such, it should be less than half that size. (2) Put "Linux" in the message. It will make it clearer to the windows-user audience and be considered more valuable to the software publisher.

Hi all, I keep encountering people mentioning that VB stuff has lotsa problems on Wine.

The Wine is good? I get you more Wine. Keywords: WABI Wine MS Windows Emulator Originator: mdw@sunSITE Numerous people have requested that the project status of Wine be posted regularly. For the benifit of those people, I am posting the latest README file that I have uploaded to tsx-11... The Wine project for linux is an attempt to write something with similar functionality to the WABI that was developed by Sun. The basic goal is to be able to take a MS-Windows binary and run it under Linux with X-Windows running. The finished product will essentiaily consist of two parts: a) A program loader, which will load the Windows binary into the virtual memory of the linux process, provide a means for adjusting the ldt of the processor so that the 16-bit segments that are typically used with Windows binaries will work correctly, and provide a means for calling the Windows binary in the first place, allowing the Windows binary to call back to the 32-bit mode program, and finally allow the 32-bit mode program to call back again to the Windows binary (i.e. Windows callbacks). In each case, the arguments being passed wil have to be pulled from the appropriate stack and loaded on to the other stack (there will be a 16 bit and a 32 bit stack). Finally some application specfic DLL libraries will have to be loaded, and dynamic linking will have to be performed. b) The second part of the finished product is an emulation library, which takes calls to Windows functions, and somehow translates these into calls to X11 in one fashion or another, so that equivalent functionality is achieved. It should be pointed out that the Windows binary will be running directly - there will be no need for machine level emulation of the instructions. Sun has reported better performance with their version of WABI than is actually achieved under MS-Windows - theoretically the same result is possible under linux. The project got started as a result of discussions on comp.os.linux in early June of 1993. A mail channel was set up for discussions, and this directory was created. At the moment, all of the files that are uploaded are in the private directory in a hidden directory. The reason for this is that the program is really only of use to developers right now. Once something is ready for public consumption, it will be uploaded to a publicly visible directory. The final product will almost certainly be under the GNU Public License (or GPL for short). If you are interested in getting involved in this project, join the linux activists' WABI channel. If you have never joined a channel before, send mail to linux-activists-request(a)niksul.hut.fi. It will reply with a help message. New releases are approximately every Tuesday. All releases are announced to the WABI channel. Also, I will do my best to answer any question mailed to me. My address is "bob(a)amscons.com". *************************************************************** Status Report - September 3, 1993 Windows Solitaire is barely playable for the first time today. Special thanks go to Alexandre Julliard, Eric Youngdale, David Metcalfe and Peter MacDonald for their work on this project. If you live near one of these people, buy them a beer. It looks like the Linux kernel modifications are nearing completion. Hopefully the next Linux kernel (0.99.13 ?) will not require patching to run Wine. The loader portion is nearing completion. Sample Windows binaries are loaded correctly into memory, dynamicly linked and so forth. The 16/32 bit call interface is fairly complete. There are still a few features that remain to be added before it can be considered "done", but it is at the point where it is actually useful. Resource loading is only partially complete. A very minimal version of the emulation library has been merged with the loader. Windows can be created, DC's may be used, bitmaps are handled, text drawing is implemented, and a preliminary implementation of menus has been created. Bugs are still present in many of the implemented functions, but things are starting to look up. -- Bob Amstadt bob(a)amscons.com -- Send submissions for comp.os.linux.announce to: linux-announce(a)tc.cornell.edu [View Less]

IDL/header issues
by Ove Kaaven 06 Nov '02

Now WIDL is good enough to generate a drop-in replacement for Wine's wtypes.h (attached) from a suitably crafted Wine-compatible wtypes.idl (also attached). I've included all the definitions that were already in Wine's wtypes.h (but I was too lazy to do everything that's in Microsoft's wtypes.idl yet). What do you think, is this good enough to go into Wine? Are there some desirable changes to widl or wtypes.idl?

WineHQ menu (take 3)
by Francois Gouget 04 Nov '02

04 Nov '02

Here's the latest version of my WineHQ menu proposal. I tried to take into account (at least some of) the comments I received on the previous one. What's especially new is that you can see this one on the Web and that should give everyone something more concrete to think about. Note of course that it's just a draft so it comes with disclaimers: - I did not reorganize anything in the Web site so the links may not take you were you expect. In particular they will systematically send you to the '… [View More]old' site. - the presentation is a patchwork of stuff taken from WineHQ's bugzilla and WineHQ's home page and about the only screenshot that we have. So the look and feel is far from consistent. But I want you to imagine in your mind that it all matches pretty well. Now that you've read the disclaimer you can have a look at it: http://fgouget.free.fr/tmp/WineHQ.html And now, I'll add more comments: * Ok, first I should not have said 'on the home page the news should be a link and no more'. That's not even really what I think. I still think it's absolutely vital that the home page answer the question 'What is Wine?'. But once that is answered, there is room left for the latest news, a pointer to the latest WineHQ release, etc. See the above URL for a possible (if maybe somewhat clumsy) layout. * The '7' item limit. I think it only applies to flat lists. The menu structure I propose never has more than 7 items in a category and does not have more than 7 categories. I will also note that the Application Database has 14 items, and the Bugzilla page more than 40 and both are perfectly usable. The Home Page (and most other pages) will only have 30 now and I think that fits pretty well. * I renamed 'Contributing' to 'Help Wanted' which hopefully is clearer. * 'Supported Applications'. That's too long: it gets split in two lines so I shortened it to 'Applications'. We could also make our menus larger or rename it to 'Application Support' (which would still require making the menu a bit larger). * Manually maintained 'Supported Applications' list. I did not add a menu entry for this. However, maybe this could be the home page of the Application Database. * removed 'Miscellaneous'.

i810 & wineoss & sound formats

There is something that sees very wrong in OSS_WaveOutInit. We do: smplrate = 44100; if (ioctl(ossdev->fd, SNDCTL_DSP_SPEED, &smplrate) == 0) { ... this format is supported ... } But according to the OSS spect this ioctl call is not garanteed to give you the actual sampling frequency you asked for. So if the device only supports 11025Hz, ioctl will return success but you will find that after the call smplrate==11025. So it seems it would be more correct to … [View More]

This is the initial TODO for Wine 0.8. I know, 0.8 has been released before, but that's ancient history. Whether or not it gets released with this version number is irrelevant. In fact, even if it never becomes a public release, it is an important point to reach toward 0.9, and so if we complete this work, it would have solved its purpose. Now, again, what I mean by 0.8: -- Users can start using Wine -- works well for a fair number of apps -- no MS DLLs required (from real Windows) --… [View More]

This is my proposal for the WineHQ menu structure, based on the discussions I had with Francois. The Home Page should just be our news page.

Each box should have a link at the bottom to their respective archive pages. Below, the numbers are for reference only, they should not appear on the site. … [View More]

A problem with comctl32

Hey, I've come across what appears to be a simple problem in comctl32. When running icq99b, wine was dying in imagelist.c while trying to dereference a null pointer.

menu resource parsing question...

Upon the testing of Kazaa lite I ran into numerous errors like: err:menu:MENU_ParseResource not a string item, flags: 0x0800 These entries appear to be intended as separators and in fact the flag of 0x800 is MF_SEPARATOR. The code in question is : if (!IS_STRING_ITEM(flags)) ERR("not a string item, flags: 0x%04x\n", flags ); Where IS_STRING_ITEM is a macro: #define IS_STRING_ITEM(flags) (MENU_ITEM_TYPE ((flags)) == MF_STRING) And: #define MENU_ITEM_TYPE(flags) \ ((… [View More]

Strange problem on serial port
by David D. Hagood 02 Nov '02

02 Nov '02

There seems to be a strange problem related to the serial port. Specifically, when running Delorme AAA MapNGo 4.0, and attempting to use GPS navigation, it is unable to communicate with the GPS device. On stderr Wine is printing out RtlNtStatusToDOSerr - unable to map 00000102 This only happens when the GPS device is connected and sending data, otherwise no error is printed. I know that the device is sending, because Minicom will show the data stream from the device. This also leaves out … [View More]

Wine 0.8 TODO v0.2

This will probably get renamed to Wine 0.9 TODO, after Alexandre's clarification, but I haven't changed the name just yet, to avoid confusion. Once again, what I mean by 0.8: -- Users can start using Wine -- works well for a fair number of apps -- no MS DLLs required (from real Windows) -- User facing stuff (website, docs, etc.) are in a decent state, to avoid scaring them away What is NOT in 0.8: -- stable server protocol: no binary compatibility -- DLL … [View More]separation: ditto That being said, this is my initial list. Comments, flames, suggestions, are appreciated. A. WineHQ work (Beta at: http://lostwages.winehq.org) 0. Website redesign Jeremy Newman <jnewman(a)codeweavers.com> 1. Reorganize the navigational menu There is a proposal being discussed on the list 2. Create some really sexy screenshots -- one app per screenshot, avoid cluttered desktop -- minimize size, if possible by using 'Positioned Color Dithering' 3. Rework the FAQ interface (static HTML, a la http://www.dvddemystified.com/dvdfaq.html, all on one page, with a clickable question list at the top) Agreed on the list. Should be written in SGML, so we can output all sorts of formats. Which means we need layouts, etc. Any takers? 4. Enlist some 'official' distribution maintainers (at the minimum RedHat, Suse, Mandrake, Debian) 5. Create nice page with apps that run virtually flawless They should not require MS dlls, tricks, etc. to run Small explanation, screeshot, optional link to download page, such as Tucows. Carlos <clozano(a)andago.com> is running with it. B. Documentation work Andy, take it away! :) 0. We need to figure first _what_ is out of date. C. Wine configuration 0. Merge configuration into the registry 1. Write control panel applets for editing it 2. Have decent defaults so we can start control panel without prior configuration 3. Have wizard like app to autoconfigure wine WineSetupTk proposed by Jeremy White <jwhite(a)codeweavers.com> 4. Make Wine's DLLs register themselves to avoid manual merging of the winedefault.reg 5. Write .inf script to setup a new Wine installation 6. Have a wineboot script for RunOnce stuff D. Stabilize utilities 0. Get rid of the init directive from .spec files Alexandre Julliard <julliard(a)winehq.com> volunteered 1. Make sure the .spec file format is fairly stable Any other things that may need changing here? 2. Ensure the various utilities' options are stable Anything here? E. Important fixes 0.

This is a summary of my recent probs with Winelib in the hope that someone who knows the COM stuff can fix them quickly, because hacking through the jungle of include files and definitions is hard work In short, I've built the latest wine cvs with the ICOM_MSVTABLE_COMPAT flag set in include/wine/obj_base.h, so each vtable has two dummy words at the start for g++'s benefit.

MDAC
by Gustavo Junior Alves 01 Nov '02

01 Nov '02

Hi guys, I don't know if this is the right place, but I actually trying to run some commercial applications on Wine. We have sucess in all aplications, but VB. These applications need to use MDAC, and this Microsoft package need to be licensed for commercial use. Anybody know any MDAC project? If not, what about to implement it on Wine? I know that it a huge API, but we need to start someday. Any comments??? Gustavo
