Using web in Linux / Ubuntu

Yes, I know that there is Linux version - QNE...
But, I am using web for many years now and am comfortable with it.

I tried installing it under Wine in Linux, it fails on missing MFC42u.dll, which I can copy from windows, or is there no way for me to use it that way?

The QNE version is like having to learn another package and if I am forced to go that way, I can look at other tools, I truely hope I don't have to.

Cheers
Alex

Note that running WWB on Linux is not officially supported. It may work, but if there is an issue then I cannot help you with it.
Some Windows features may not be supported by WINE.

To install MFC42u.dll,, you can try this:

Any suggestion as to how to implement this? Where to dump the content into?

Thanks

I',m sorry, I do not have any experience with this myself. So, I cannot give support on Linux/Wine configuration.

Hello friends,

After several reinstallations of Ubuntu / Wine / WWB - I gave up... Frustrated and dissapointed. IT just doesn't install, if it does, it just doesn't run.
I have installed several other Windows programs in Wine and they all work OK.

So, I will give QNE a try.

I followed the links that you guys provided me with, no answers were there.
With Windows programs - unlike with Linux setups, they in most cases - come with all that is required, DLL files included.

Thanks for your help

Alex
