Boxedwine Emulator Test
This post tests the Boxedwine emulator component for running Windows applications in the browser.
Running an app with a separate zip file
If your app is in a separate zip file (like ski32.zip), specify both the app name and program:
<div data-component="boxedwine-emulator"
data-app="ski32"
data-program="ski32.exe"
data-width="800"
data-height="600">
</div>
Running an app from boxedwine.zip with a batch file
If your app is already installed in boxedwine.zip and you're using a batch file to launch it:
<div data-component="boxedwine-emulator"
data-program="run.bat"
data-width="800"
data-height="600">
</div>
Example: MASH
For the MASH application running directly from the boxedwine.zip filesystem:
The emulator will:
- Load BrowserFS and JSZip
- Download the boxedwine.zip filesystem
- Download the mash.zip app if specified
- Initialize Boxedwine with the specified program
- Display the Windows application in the canvas
