View Full Version : Linux Deco Software
seanrollins October 17th, 2003, 12:00 AM Greetings all, Are there any linux users out there who could recommend a good Deco Software package to me? I love vplanner, but unfortunately a port hasn't been made to linux yet :( JessH October 17th, 2003, 12:55 AM Last I looked all I could find was vaporware. If you find anything let me know. You may be able to get vplanner running with wine(http://www.winehq.com) ~Jess Bob3 October 17th, 2003, 03:12 AM I haven't tried it yet, but "Win4Lin" is supposed to allow windoze programs to be run in a Linux environment. For more info, see: http://www.netraverse.com/ seanrollins October 17th, 2003, 07:30 PM I'm sure WINE (Windows Emulator) would probably run it as well, but I was hoping to get away from an emulator. Thanks for the input though! hambleto October 17th, 2003, 07:38 PM Have you done a search on: http://www.sourceforge.net/ or http://www.freshmeat.net/ It was just an idea.

Thanks for the input though! WINE isn't an emulator. WINE Stands for WINE Is Not an Emulator It is a port of the Win32 API to Linux and allows Windows programs to run "natively" on linux. But....I understand what you mean...it's still a kludge. My geekitude quotient just raised substantially didn't it? :) seanrollins October 17th, 2003, 08:18 PM I was trying to keep the conversation to terms that people understand ;) Most people have no clue what an API is. Me, I'm a software engineering student (third year), so I'm quite aware :> Since you're familiar with linux, and are obviously a diver, do you know of good deco software package?

Sorry, I forgot to post my link: Check out http://www.linuxdiving.org/ JessH October 19th, 2003, 01:06 AM Soggy once bubbled... WINE isn't an emulator. WINE Stands for WINE Is Not an Emulator I was actually contemplating whether I should point this out when I saw your post :-) I actually did some coding for WINE back in the day. Looks to me like we have enough programmers here to make our own software. ~Jess seanrollins October 19th, 2003, 01:33 AM JesseH, I like that idea. What we need is a math major who can code the algorithms for us. I'm alright with math, but I don't know if I could implement the decompression algorithms. I'd certainly be willing to contribute to writing some code though ;)
