Introduction
Translators's Workplace provides Dictionaries, Commentaries and other useful
reference works.
If Translator's Workplace were to run properly on Linux through Wine, then
Bibledit would be sending references to it. There is an option for this in menu
Preferences - Reference exchange. It would be sending them through Bibledit
Windows Outpost. But as Translator's Workplace does not run properly on Linux,
none of this works.
Installation
Ensure you've got Wine installed.
Insert the Translator's Workplace CD-ROM in the drive and mount the
drive.
In the terminal type
wine /media/cdrom/SETUP.EXE
Follow the instructions on the screen to install Translator's Workplace.
To copy infobases to your harddrive, copy them from the CD-ROM to the
directory where the infobases are supposes to be stored. Type
cp /media/cdrom/NFO/* "/home/joe/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/SIL/TW4/nfo"
where "joe" is your username.
Unmount the CD-ROM, insert the Library CD and mount the CD drive, and copy
all infobases on that CD also, using the same command.
Use
To run the program type
wine "c:/Program Files/SIL/TW4/Views.exe"
Once in Folio View, click the Open button and navigate to nfo, then open
TWMenu4.nfo, and things will be ready for use.
Clicking some links to open other infobases for some reason does not work,
but if these infobases are opened manually, they can be viewed.
