Comment on Wine 11 runs Windows apps in Linux and macOS better than ever
Yes, it does.
OK, my question is - is wine just a windows emulator
No, Wine Is Not an Emulator.
What does the WINE in WINE Is Not an Emulator stand for
It’s recursive for Wine Is Not An Emulator. The program is a translation layer - including translating Windows specific function calls into something Linux can understand (IE: DirectX to Vulcan).
It Not an Emulator all the way down.
