Wine 0.9.44 Released

Posted by kdawson on from the in-old-bottles dept.

jshriverWVU writes to let us know about the release of Wine 0.9.44. Wine is a free implementation of Windows on Unix/Linux. New in this release are: better heuristics for making windows managed; automatic detection of timezone parameters; improvements to the built-in WordPad; better signatures support in crypt32; still more gdiplus functions; and of course lots of bug fixes.

    Imagine Duke Nukem Forever running under Wine 1.0 on GNU Hurd.

    improvements to the built-in WordPad

    That's been one thing that really bugs me about Linux. I'm fed up of having to use horrible outdated editors like emacs and vi. Now finally I can use a decent editor without having to dual-boot.

    I'll probably be modded down for this...

    I would love to use Wine, but unfortunately I don't have Linux. Are there any plans to port Wine to Windows?
