Notes
List of 11 items
1. 7-Zip's address bar and directory up button will not be show under Wine. This can be worked around by enabling the ".." listing in 7-Zip's options window.
2. AbiWord can be launched and configured within Wine and can open and save documents but it cannot display documents correctly due to font rendering issues.
3. FileZilla 2.2.22 and under support Win 9x. It is still available for download, but use is not recommended.
4. Firefox, Thunderbird, Sunbird and NVU will display default fonts when running under Wine.
5. OpenOffice.org requires a
patch
to work on Win 95.
6. OpenOffice.org will crash when attemping to use Java-dependent features (wizards, some database design) when running under Wine.
7. Sudoku will not save games when run within Wine.
8. VLC Media Player does not officially support Windows 9x, but it should work on most systems with the

9. Audacity can open, save and convert files in Wine but can not play them.
10. Sunbird 0.2 supports Win 9x. It is still available for download, but no longer supported.
11. Firefox 2.0 runs on Win 98 and up. For Win 95, download a 1.5 release.
