Download Wine 1.1.38

A new development build of Wine was released on Friday. Wine is an open source implementation of the Windows API. This makes it possible to run DOS and Windows programs on Linux, FreeBSD and Mac OS X, among others. Wine is contributed by a large group of developers, which is why it was decided to release a new build every two weeks, instead of waiting for a number of new features to be ready. The database with applications running under Wine, with or without some minor tweaks, contains 13,690 titles at the time of writing, 110 more than version 1.1.37. Below you will find what has been changed and improved in this release:

What’s new in this release:

• Better support for memory allocations debugging.
• Improved MIDI support.
• A wide range of Direct3D fixes.
