Hi,
Are there a way to run/install lingoes dictionary in fedora 14?
I really want to run it in fedora but don't know how.
Here is the dictionary: http://www.lingoes.net/

I appreciate your help.
 

That appears to be windows software. It might work using the wine windows compatibility software http://winehq.com, or it might not.
You will only know by trying it. You will have to read the documentation and figure out some things.

Fedora 14 is old now, wine 1.3.8 was packaged for it. You can probably install it by typing yum install wine
Then you will have to follow the instructions for setting up wine so you have a linux folder that is your virtual windows drive c: and other settings.
Wine 1.3.8 is old, you will not get much help with it, they will just tell you to upgrade.

The current release of wine will probably not run on fedora 14 because it will need newer libraries. Fedora 19 is out now.
 
Thanks for the help.
Yes, it is a windows application. I installed and used it in my windows but now as switching to Fedora I can't use it any more. :sad:
I has to install Fedora 14 because my Cadence software only run with this version. It is really hard for me, I am not familiar with Fedora. I installed Wine but can't figure out how to run lingoes.
In this wine, there are these:
1. Notepad
2. Regedit
3 Wine boot
4. Wine configuration
5. Wine File
6 Wine help
7. Wine OLE view
8. Wine software Uninstaller
9. Wine wordpad
Can you tell me what should I do now? I am just using Fedora a few days and really scared to many instructions. Or do you know any capture dictionary that run on fedora and I can use capture function like lingoes?
 

I have just installed lingoes by using Wine. Installation succeeded but I can't open it. Any ideal? Are there other ways to use lingoes in Fedora?
