Wabi 2.2 on HP-UX 10.20 785/C3000

[Edgar Arroyo]

Hi, I just found this program on my C3000 machine, ran it, it was asking for DISK 1 of Windows 3.1, I got it, but it wouldn't work, checked on website, had to copy all files to folder and use a prog. to make links to UPPERCASE files so Wabi would recongnize them. Everything worked, but here is my question....

Is there going to be a newer wabi that can run Win32 apps? Can I install Win32s on this Win 3.1 on my Wabi and run 32 bit apps?

Thanks.

Wow, it took me a while to remember what Wabi was!

If I remember correctly it was a Sun product. When 32 bit Windows came out Sun said that it was not going to do a version of Wabi to support it. Wabi was good though, at the time.

Better functionality is now supported by other products though I only know of them working on i386 type unixes such as Linux.

Yeah, there is even cross platform (I think it's called VMWare) but it's processor dependent, so RISC is out of the question... I wanted to run Ultr@VNC which is WIN32, there is no UNIX port (YET).. We use this at work to do remote control since it has an add-on for encryption.
