Scripts updates: WorkOnLinux improvements
Thursday 12 June 2008 at 16:12
PlayOnLinux did a large number of updates for the scripts.
mIRC (the famous scriptable IRc client)
Trillian (A very powerful Multi-protocol Instant Messenger that works perfectly with Wine)
IZArc (A free and adaptable archive extractor. I didn't found any equivalent piece of software for Linux)
.NET Framework 2.0
This last one will be useful to install the .NET Framework 2.0 in the prefix of your choice.
- The Notepad++ script now installs the 2.9.2 version instead of the 2.3 one
- Mozilla Firefox with macromedia shockwave player support (else it's useless).
- DirectX will be accessible in the "Other" category rather than in the main menu, as from 3.0.3 version.
- The .NET Framework 1.1 will be scripted
- A script will be done to install the gecko engine in the prefix of your choice
- Mono 1.0 will be scripted
- Various libraries
- iTunes (for the store)
- Quicktime (same principle as .NET Framework, it will ask the prefix where to install)
- Windows Live Messenger (for ... hmm ... the wizz and also, we hope, for the audio and the video)
Have a good day all :-)

Let's start with the newcomers:
Inno Setup (A Windows setup creator)mIRC (the famous scriptable IRc client)
Trillian (A very powerful Multi-protocol Instant Messenger that works perfectly with Wine)
IZArc (A free and adaptable archive extractor. I didn't found any equivalent piece of software for Linux)
.NET Framework 2.0
This last one will be useful to install the .NET Framework 2.0 in the prefix of your choice.
Updates
- Several scripts have been renamed for a better integration and more clarity.- The Notepad++ script now installs the 2.9.2 version instead of the 2.3 one
And then?
Other new scripts will arrive, such as:- Mozilla Firefox with macromedia shockwave player support (else it's useless).
- DirectX will be accessible in the "Other" category rather than in the main menu, as from 3.0.3 version.
- The .NET Framework 1.1 will be scripted
- A script will be done to install the gecko engine in the prefix of your choice
- Mono 1.0 will be scripted
- Various libraries
We are working on:
Some softwares that hardly install with Wine, such as:- iTunes (for the store)
- Quicktime (same principle as .NET Framework, it will ask the prefix where to install)
- Windows Live Messenger (for ... hmm ... the wizz and also, we hope, for the audio and the video)
Have a good day all :-)
