AutoWikiBrowser (AWB) is a Wikipedia-oriented browser for doing
repetitive editing:

AWB is a .NET 2.0 application. It doesn't work in Wine under Mono 1.2:
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8499
- but I see Mono 1.9 (preview of 2.0) is out, so decided to give it a go:
http://www.go-mono.com/mono-downloads/download.html
It doesn't actually work yet, apparently because of an unimplemented
function in gdiplus.dll:
fun at heidi:~$ '/home/fun/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/AWB/AutoWikiBrowser.exe'
fixme:spoolsv:serv_main (0 (nil))
wine: Call from 0x7b840f50 to unimplemented function
gdiplus.dll.GdipCreateFontFamilyFromName, aborting
err:seh:setup_exception stack overflow 16 bytes in thread 0011 eip
7b841946 esp 00410ff0 stack 0x411000-0x620000
Any ideas on simple workarounds? Is the above worth adding to bug 8499 as yet?
(And if you have an app that wants .NET 2.0, give Mono 1.9 for Windows a try!)
