4.9. Win95/98 Look

Written by David A. Cuthbert

(Extracted from wine/documentation/win95look)

Win95/Win98 interface code is being introduced.

Instead of compiling Wine for Win3.1 vs. Win95 using #define switches, the code now looks in a special [Tweak.Layout] section of ~/.wine/config for a "WineLook" = "Win95" or "WineLook" = "Win98" entry.

A few new sections and a number of entries have been added to the ~/.wine/config file -- these are for debugging the Win95 tweaks only and may be removed in a future release! These entries/sections are:

[Tweak.Fonts]
"System.Height" = "<point size>"    # Sets the height of the system typeface
"System.Bold" = "[true|false]"      # Whether the system font should be boldfaced
"System.Italic" = "[true|false]"    # Whether the system font should be italicized
"System.Underline" = "[true|false]" # Whether the system font should be underlined
"System.StrikeOut" = "[true|false]" # Whether the system font should be struck out
"OEMFixed.xxx"                  # Same parameters for the OEM fixed typeface
"AnsiFixed.xxx"                 # Same parameters for the Ansi fixed typeface
"AnsiVar.xxx"                   # Same parameters for the Ansi variable typeface
"SystemFixed.xxx"               # Same parameters for the System fixed typeface

[Tweak.Layout]
"WineLook" = "[Win31|Win95|Win98]"  # Changes Wine's look and feel
