I agree with a lot of good reasons primarily around security but I have to say I don't agree with this. Wine is far faster that Virtualbox or rebooting. Take adding bookmarks to pdfs which I sorted out yesterday. Install foxit on windows copy the directory to wine (install failed for me) and bang, sorted. Perhaps the latest poppler and okular can do bookmarks properly now? but there are other commercial apps required thankfully falling one by one. -- _______________________________________________________________________ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
