    I'm trying to put delfship on my other computer in my work shop but it won't run on the ubuntu os on my computer down there, it says that there isn't a program to open it. So, 2 questions; 1, is there a program I can download and 2, where do I find it? :?:

    If you are not familiar with wine, here's how to do it from the console.

    First you need to download the Delftship installation file and save it somewhere on your computer (I placed it in /media/Scratch/Downloads/boat-software/DelftShip folder) and then:

    Code:
    [vladimir@hp]$ cd ~/.wine/drive_c
    [vladimir@hp drive_c]$ cp /media/Scratch/Downloads/boat-software/DelftShip/ds_free_32.exe .
    [vladimir@hp drive_c]$ wine ds_free_32.exe
    If some Windows program can run under the wine, this is the best way to install it.

    Regards
    Vladimir
