GIF Construction Set Professional

What works

The core application works with no problems as far as we have been able to determine. This is the Internet -- if there's a bug in there, someone will find it any minute now.

What does not

1. The Paint function of GIF Construction Set Professional 3 expects to find Windows Paint, which is not present under Wine. Users will probably want to disable the check for Paint in the Setup dialog of GIF Construction Set.

2. The Export to AVI function makes calls to Windows VFW libraries, which may or may not be entirely stable under Wine. This function can only be used if the Write Compressed Movies function is disabled in the GIF Construction Set Setup dialog.

Additional Comments

Users will need to install msvcp60.dll under Wine for the software to install and run -- see http://www.mindworkshop.com/alchemy/linux.html for this library.
