[Isis-users] Script to check ISIS database integrity

[Piet De Keyser]

Hi Gus,

Normally you would use the Windows version of cunchmf to convert the database under Windows to the Linux version. After copying the result onto you Linux machine, you would use the Linux version of mx etc. But if the wine does the trick for you, no problem then.

Dear folks, thanks for all the answers!

As I really need cisis fully working in Linux and I can't convert the
database in Windows, I'm using wine[1] to run cisis Windows version to
manage isis databases created on Windows.

$ wine i2id.exe database >> database.id
$ wine crunchmf.exe database newdatabase target=linux

cheers,
gus
