Yes I read the NHFs and all - any sample wine.conf files and tips or tweaks would be appreciated. I have it working for simple stuff like Wordpad, Notepad, Solitare, etc. What have you been able to run with WINE?

I can run most of the Office2000 programs in it, but very unstably (no, I didn't pay for Office2000, my school has a sitewide license or something). They will initialize, and I can do rudimentary stuff, but it's kinda sketchy. But then, I haven't tweaked much. I basically use the default, but changed to reflect my drives.

What is CVS?

Concurrent Version System.
Some projects use it to manage their source code. Everytime a little modification is done to the source of the program, the CVS archive gets updated to include those minor changes.

When anonymous CVS access is avaiable, you can download the latest versions of the sourcecode.

You can also update your sourcecode, say, everyday to reflect the latest modifications to it, and have virtually the same code as the developers.

That way a program you download via cvs is in a lot of cases only several hours old, and often unstable, as code in cvs might not even be tested. However, if all goes well, you'll be on the bleedinng edge of development.

There is the command line utility 'cvs' and several frontends, like 'pharmacy', which comes with GNOME.
