[Papyrus-L] Papyrus under Linux

Attention Linux/Unix users:

I have been running Papyrus for years on various windows systems, and I 
still do that.  However, I have been migrating to Linux for several 
months, and I can find almost no reasons to continue with the Microsoft 
products.

One problem remaining is Papyrus.  I am interested in learning if anyone 
has run this system on a Linux or otherwise on a Unix operating system. 
My first thought was to use the program "WINE" that is commonly used to 
run DOS and WIndows programs under Linux.  This was my second attempt 
ever, and I got an error message (see below) that seemed to make little 
sense from the WINE program.  I would like to hear from you or anyone 
who has configured WINE to run PAP.exe.  I am not interested in a dual 
boot system. 

Many thanks.

FGPatterson
