Re: Re: Free Ecco Pro

Thanks Douglas, thanks for your help!
Good to know, once we get it right I would like to publish a page
with step by step instructions for those users who would like to
switch to Linux/Wine. Can I count on you?

To start EE with EccoPro just execute "eccoext.exe" in
the Ecco program folder.

As I recall, that's what I did, after starting Ecco normally
(which in my case, is via the Xfce4-panel Whisker menu in
which I have Ecco listed as a "Favorite, along with a few of
the other applications I use daily).

If I understand you correctly, I have to open EE which then
opens Ecco. However, the Xfce4-panel Whisker menu does not
provide me with an EE icon to make as a favorite. This
means I must use my file navigator to open EE, which is
somewhat less convenient but no big deal.

In Windows you will see a
small EccoPro icon in your lower toolbar at he right.
Just right-click that icon and you will see all the
additional EccoPro options. How does it appear on your
screen under Wine?

First of all, unlike M$ Windows, Linux distros allow the use
of a multitude of Desktop Environments. In other words, the
range of choices is far greater. In my case however, I have
settled on either Openbox (which is NOT a full DE) to which
I add the Xfce4-panel and several of the widgets that can be
linked to it. In other cases (when Openbox is not an option
that is offered), I install the full Xfce environment.

The Ecco icon DOES in fact appear in the notifications
section of my lower Xfce4-panel here in 64 bit Sparky
Openbox, and by right clicking on it I get a menu with a
dozen options and by left clicking on it, Ecco either opens
and closes or disappears and appears.

Each of the dozen menu items shows a number of additions
choices so it appears to me that EE is fully functional in
Debian under Wine.

For instance, I can make the Shooter (which I do not use)
appear and disappear, without going into the

tools menu.

I have to do some other things at the moment, but could
follow up on this later.

Douglas
