[Wine]Running DOS program in a cron job

[Patrick Naef]

>I have tried setting (and exporting) TERM to a number of devices, among them /dev/null or
>/dev/tty1, but this didn't help. I have tried chown'ing the device to the user that runs the cron

export TERM=linux

does the trick. You still have to set GraphicsDriver=ttydrv in ~/.wine/config


I found the solution here: http://archiv.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/2003/0101/data/nr3-2003.pdf
(page 8; document is in German).
