Porting Matrix Online Emulator to Wine on Ubuntu Linux

[pagesix1536]

Did some testing in Windows 8.1 / 10. Instructions work flawless just like the video shows. (Windows 8.1 is a complete piece of garbage BTW. I don't know how you all used that crap with weird-ass start menu tiles, and the convoluted process just to do a shutdown. And between the two of them, don't even get me started on how many "features" I had to opt-out of just to minimize how much the OS reports back to Redmond.)

Windows XP still gives me trouble and won't run the updated patcher from a fresh install of the OS. I'm guessing it's missing some Visual C++ redist goodies. This is actually a good thing since it's probably a similar condition to what a Wine install is missing to run the patcher code. I'll try to spend some more time looking at what does/doesn't work with a fresh XP install compared with what Wine might be missing.
