Not SCGS, W2GS, or W3GS? Not that there is a GS for them.. but.. nevermind.

MyndFyre, I meant that.

Can you not use api calls or something in RB?

Win32 API on a Macintosh?

Hahahaha.

I don't know anything about RB, thats why I asked a question.  Sorry for trying to be informed, I'll never do it again. ::)

WINE

I don't believe Wine has been ported to Macintosh yet, and even if it was, ewwww @ making a program dependent on it.

Thanks for the link to wine. I don't think I would have found it without your help!

EDIT -- Do you really think those are the only distros of Linux there are? That is why there is the source download! :p

[Joe]

Thou shalt tell him, Newblare! </greek>

LoRd is right, WINE simply implements the Win32 APIs, and runs EXEs just as a Windows computer would. Hence the name, Wine is not an emulator.

Don't let puberty control you by letting the sudden increase in hormones go to your head.  Take the time to read before you post.

[Newby]

I realized you said "I don't think", because apparently you didn't. I just thought I'd help you think. :)

[MyndFyre]

Maybe you could google first, LoRd.  "wine on os x" reveals a great first link:

http://darwine.opendarwin.org//

While the basic compatibility is there as Darwin is largely FreeBSD, there is the hurdle of its Mach kernel which uses the Mach-O format rather than ELF. This part has been achived with success. It means that WineLib is now working on Mac OS X, and that developers should be able to recompile their Win32 Apps using WineLib and make them work in Mac OS X.

Apple has decided to switch from IBM PowerPC to Intel Processor. It means that Wine will be able to work on Mac OS X/x86 as well that it does on linux, with a limited effort. You might notice that there is already some code to support Mac OS X/x86 in the Wine's source code, but it is untested.

It will apparently only run on IBM-based Macs.

Maybe you should read the entire FAQ:

The first phase is the port of Wine to Darwin/PowerPC with X11 (XFree86).

It doesn't yet run a Win32 EXE out of the box, but it brings cross-platform code compatibility to Mac OS X with WineLib.  If you had read the FAQ, it addressed the Mac OS X switch to Intel, but it clearly indicates that Darwine is not limited to Darwin-x86.

Awesome. I wonder if they'll make it work on PPC Linux!
