Wine Multimedia
From Wine-Wiki
If you are trialing or using Wine, please firstly add your software to the Wine Application Database, and do feel free to add a wiki page to detail and share your insights, trials and efforts with others. While the Wine Database is the official source of information; if you do not have all the answers, and maybe a few questions, this is where wiki can shine and complement the database (not compete) - by allowing a diverse group of both experienced and inexperienced users to freely build, share and collate their hard won knowledge. We endeavour to always link to software in the official database and maintainers are also welcome to add a link to this wiki.
For those trying software with wine, you will find the following links informative:
- Wine_InstallShield
- Advanced_Wine_User_Information#Vairiations_of_Running_Wine_with_or_without_X
- Winecfg
- For those new to wine, the Tips and Tricks Page will introduce you to using wine..
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 a Red link, which is a link to a blank page. If you then save your changes and then click on the red link, a new page is created.
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 may 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
The wiki does not endorse software or games.
