Free Darwine 1.0 Runs Windows Applications On Darwin And Mac OS X

316
Darwine allows Darwin and Mac OS X users to run Windows applications. The Darwine project intends to port and develop WINE as well as other supporting tools that will allow Darwin and Mac OS X users to run Windows Applications, and to provide a Win32 API compatibility at application source code level.

These are unofficial builds of Darwine. Darwine is the OS X flavour of Wine.

Official Darwine builds are "a little bit" offsync to the regular wine releases, that's why I build it myself. Additionaly, they come with a built in freetype library for correct fontmetrics and antialiasing. Darwine runs on Tiger and Leopard, only Intel processor, sorry.

Before You install, please make sure:
• Tiger users: install X11 from your Tiger Installation DVD
• Download and open Darwine 1.1.0
• Drag Darwine to the "/Applications" Folder
• To delete, just drag the folder "Darwine" to the trash
• To completely remove Darwine (and Windows apps) from your system delete the following files and folders:
/Applications/Darwine
~.wine
~/Library/Preferences/org.wine.winehelper.plist
