You need to install the WINE layer (sub-system) on those operating systems for TAD to work. Inside WINE, ensure that the MSScript controls and VBA are installed. |

+ | **IMPORTANT**\\ | ||
+ | //The installer that we have released many not work on non-Windows OS. If you face a problem let us know, and we will attempt to make the installer also cross platform. However as a work-around, | ||
+ | |||
+ | TAD works quite well on Chromebooks. Here is a screenshot on HP x360 12b (12“ version of their x360 series) It has 4 Gb RAM and supports a minimal version of Linux called “Crostini” | ||
+ | |||
+ | For this to work, your Chromebook MUST have this feature. So older Chromebooks may not work. Also, I think this will not work on non-Intel based Chromebook. That means, buy a Chromebook which is both Intel based (and not ARM based) as well as ensure it should have Linux capability along with the ChromeOS | ||
+ | |||
+ | This may not work on " | ||
+ | |||
+ | In all these Operating Systems, basic concept is that you need to first install Wine and then Winetricks and then install the msscript control via winetricks. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Update**\\ | ||
+ | Apple Mac mini now runs on M1 chip. Here is an article that describes how Codweavers version of WINE does work on it. We have not yet tried this out, but it looks as if it may work (will report back once we get some tests done): https:// | ||
+ | |||
+ | The steps needed for a Chromebook are as follows: | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Step 1:** \\ | ||
+ | Ensure that you use the Linux feature of your Chromebook. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{: | ||
+ | |||
+ | You would need to start the Linux terminal on your machine. The commands given below need to be typed inside that terminal window. //Note the characters $> just means that you need to type into the terminal window. It represents the " | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | **Step 2:** \\ | ||
+ | Install Wine, as also the 32 bit version of Wine | ||
+ | |||
+ | Type these four commands one after another. Press ENTER after each | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | < | ||
+ | $> sudo apt-get install wine | ||
+ | $> sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 | ||
+ | $> sudo apt-get update | ||
+ | $> sudo apt-get install wine32 | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Step 3:**\\ | ||
+ | Type these three commands to install a utility called winetricks. Press ENTER after each | ||
+ | |||
+ | < | ||
+ | $> wget https:// | ||
+ | $> chmod +x winetricks | ||
+ | $> WINEARCH=" | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Step 4: **\\ | ||
+ | Install a utiltity called cabextract by typing this. Press ENTER after typing: | ||
+ | |||
+ | < | ||
+ | $> sudo apt-get install cabextract | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Step 5:**\\ | ||
+ | Install the MsScript contrul by typing this and pressing ENTER | ||
+ | < | ||
+ | $> ./ | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Step 6:**\\ | ||
+ | You would need to install TAD. Follow registration instructions at www.teamtad.com/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | < | ||
+ | $> unzip tadsetup.zip | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Step 7:**\\ | ||
+ | Run the installer for TAD. An I-Code would be needed to complete the installation (Or you can run TAD in demo mode) The installer would prompt you for it during the installation and you need to copy-paste it exactly. | ||
+ | |||
+ | < | ||
+ | $> wine tadsetup.exe | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Step 8:**\\ | ||
+ | Run TAD Designer Lite by typing this and pressing ENTER | ||
+ | |||
+ | < | ||
+ | $> wine .wine/ | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | |||
+ | //Note: The above steps are to be done only once. When you want to run TAD again, you would need to do **only the last step**// | ||
