NAME

       wine - run Windows programs on Unix

SYNOPSIS

       wine program [arguments]
       wine --help
       wine --version

       For   instructions   on   passing   arguments   to   Windows   programs,  please  see  the
       PROGRAM/ARGUMENTS section of the man page.

DESCRIPTION

       wine loads and runs the given program, which can be a DOS, Windows  3.x,  Win32  or  Win64
       executable (on 64-bit systems).

       For debugging wine, use winedbg instead.

       For  running  CUI executables (Windows console programs), use wineconsole instead of wine.
       This will display the output in a separate window. Not using wineconsole for CUI  programs
       will  only  provide  very  limited  console  support,  and your program might not function
       properly.

       When invoked with --help or --version as the only argument, wine will simply print a small
       help message or its version respectively and exit.

PROGRAM/ARGUMENTS

       The  program  name may be specified in DOS format (C:\\WINDOWS\\SOL.EXE) or in Unix format
       (/msdos/windows/sol.exe).  You may pass arguments to the program being executed by  adding
       them   to   the   end   of   the  command  line  invoking  wine  (such  as:  wine  notepad
       C:\\TEMP\\README.TXT).  Note that you need to '\' escape special characters  (and  spaces)
       when invoking Wine via a shell, e.g.

       wine C:\\Program\ Files\\MyPrg\\test.exe

       It  can also be one of the Windows executables shipped with Wine, in which case specifying
       the full path is not mandatory, e.g. wine explorer or wine notepad.

ENVIRONMENT

       wine makes the environment variables of the shell from which it is started  accessible  to
       the  Windows/DOS  processes started. So use the appropriate syntax for your shell to enter
       environment variables you need.

       WINEPREFIX
              If set, the contents of this variable is taken as the name of the  directory  where
              Wine  stores its data (the default is $HOME/.wine).  This directory is also used to
              identify the socket which is used to communicate with  the  wineserver.   All  wine
              processes  using  the  same  wineserver (i.e.: same user) share certain things like
              registry, shared memory, and config  file.   By  setting  WINEPREFIX  to  different
              values  for  different  wine  processes,  it  is  possible to run a number of truly
              independent wine processes.

       WINESERVER
              Specifies the path and name of the wineserver binary. If not set, Wine will try  to
              load  /usr/lib/wine/wineserver,  and  if this doesn't exist it will then look for a
              file named "wineserver" in the path and in a few other likely locations.

       WINELOADER
              Specifies the path and name of the  wine  binary  to  use  to  launch  new  Windows
              processes.  If  not  set,  Wine  will  try  to load /usr/lib/wine/wine, and if this
              doesn't exist it will then look for a file named "wine" in the path and  in  a  few
              other likely locations.

       WINEDEBUG
              Turns  debugging  messages  on  or  off.  The syntax of the variable is of the form
              [class][+|-]channel[,[class2][+|-]channel2]

              class is optional and can be one of the following: err, warn, fixme, or trace.   If
              class is not specified, all debugging messages for the specified channel are turned
              on.  Each channel will print messages about a particular component  of  Wine.   The
              following  character can be either + or - to switch the specified channel on or off
              respectively.  If there is no class part before it, a leading  +  can  be  omitted.
              Note that spaces are not allowed anywhere in the string.

              Examples:

              WINEDEBUG=warn+all
                     will turn on all warning messages (recommended for debugging).

              WINEDEBUG=warn+dll,+heap
                     will turn on DLL warning messages and all heap messages.

              WINEDEBUG=fixme-all,warn+cursor,+relay
                     will  turn off all FIXME messages, turn on cursor warning messages, and turn
                     on all relay messages (API calls).

              WINEDEBUG=relay
                     will turn on all relay messages. For more control on including or  excluding
                     functions    and    dlls    from    the   relay   trace,   look   into   the
                     HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Debug registry key.

              For more information on debugging messages, see the Running  Wine  chapter  of  the
              Wine User Guide.

       WINEDLLPATH
              Specifies the path(s) in which to search for builtin dlls and Winelib applications.
              This is a list of directories separated  by  ":".  In  addition  to  any  directory
              specified in WINEDLLPATH, Wine will also look in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/wine.

       WINEDLLOVERRIDES
              Defines  the  override  type and load order of dlls used in the loading process for
              any dll. There are currently two types of libraries  that  can  be  loaded  into  a
              process  address  space:  native  windows  dlls  (native)  and  Wine  internal dlls
              (builtin).  The type may be abbreviated with the first letter of the type (n or b).
              The library may also be disabled (''). Each sequence of orders must be separated by
              commas.

              Each dll may have its own specific load order.  The  load  order  determines  which
              version  of  the dll is attempted to be loaded into the address space. If the first
              fails, then the next is tried and so on. Multiple  libraries  with  the  same  load
              order  can  be  separated with commas. It is also possible to use specify different
              loadorders for different libraries by separating the entries by ";".

              The load order for a 16-bit dll is always defined by the load order of  the  32-bit
              dll  that  contains  it (which can be identified by looking at the symbolic link of
              the 16-bit .dll.so file). For instance  if  ole32.dll  is  configured  as  builtin,
              storage.dll  will be loaded as builtin too, since the 32-bit ole32.dll contains the
              16-bit storage.dll.

              Examples:

              WINEDLLOVERRIDES="comdlg32,shell32=n,b"
                     Try to load comdlg32 and shell32 as native windows dll  first  and  try  the
                     builtin version if the native load fails.

              WINEDLLOVERRIDES="comdlg32,shell32=n;c:\\foo\\bar\\baz=b"
                     Try  to  load  the  libraries  comdlg32  and shell32 as native windows dlls.
                     Furthermore, if an application request to load c:\foo\bar\baz.dll  load  the
                     builtin library baz.

              WINEDLLOVERRIDES="comdlg32=b,n;shell32=b;comctl32=n;oleaut32="
                     Try  to  load  comdlg32  as  builtin first and try the native version if the
                     builtin load fails; load shell32 always as builtin and  comctl32  always  as
                     native; oleaut32 will be disabled.

       WINEPATH
              Specifies   additional  path(s)  to  be  prepended  to  the  default  Windows  PATH
              environment variable. This is a list of Windows-style directories separated by ";".

              For a permanent alternative, edit (create if  needed)  the  PATH  value  under  the
              HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment registry key.

       WINEARCH
              Specifies  the  Windows  architecture  to  support.  It  can be set either to win32
              (support only 32-bit applications), or to win64 (support both  64-bit  applications
              and 32-bit ones in WoW64 mode).
              The  architecture  supported  by a given Wine prefix is set at prefix creation time
              and cannot be changed afterwards. When running with an existing prefix,  Wine  will
              refuse to start if WINEARCH doesn't match the prefix architecture.

       DISPLAY
              Specifies the X11 display to use.

       OSS sound driver configuration variables:

       AUDIODEV
              Set the device for audio input / output. Default /dev/dsp.

       MIXERDEV
              Set the device for mixer controls. Default /dev/mixer.

       MIDIDEV
              Set the MIDI (sequencer) device. Default /dev/sequencer.

FILES

       /usr/lib/wine/wine
              The Wine program loader.

       /usr/lib/wine/wineconsole
              The Wine program loader for CUI (console) applications.

       /usr/lib/wine/wineserver
              The Wine server

       /usr/lib/wine/winedbg
              The Wine debugger

       /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/wine
              Directory containing Wine shared libraries

       $WINEPREFIX/dosdevices
              Directory  containing  the  DOS  device  mappings. Each file in that directory is a
              symlink to the Unix device file implementing a given device. For instance, if  COM1
              is    mapped    to    /dev/ttyS0    you'd    have    a    symlink   of   the   form
              $WINEPREFIX/dosdevices/com1 -> /dev/ttyS0.
              DOS drives are also specified with symlinks; for instance if drive  D:  corresponds
              to  the CDROM mounted at /mnt/cdrom, you'd have a symlink $WINEPREFIX/dosdevices/d:
              -> /mnt/cdrom. The Unix device corresponding to a DOS drive can  be  specified  the
              same  way,  except  with  '::'  instead of ':'. So for the previous example, if the
              CDROM  device  is  mounted  from  /dev/hdc,  the  corresponding  symlink  would  be
              $WINEPREFIX/dosdevices/d:: -> /dev/hdc.
