Download Wine 1.1.37

A new development build of Wine was released on Friday. Wine is an open source implementation of the Windows API. This makes it possible to run DOS and Windows programs on Linux, FreeBSD and Mac OS X, among others. Wine is contributed by a large group of developers, which is why it was decided to release a new build every two weeks, instead of waiting for a number of new features to be ready. The database with applications that work under Wine, with or without some minor adjustments, contains 13,580 titles at the time of writing, 313 more than version 1.1.35. Below you will find what has been changed and improved in this release:
