Using the Himalayan Database with Wine
Wine is an open-sourced software system that allows you to run many popular Windows programs on an Intel-based Macintosh using OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) through 10.14 (Mojave) without installing the Windows operating system.
The Himalayan Database is compatible with Wine and is implemented through the WineBottler application. The Wine version of the Himalayan Database is not compatible with macOS 10.15 (Catalina) or later and is unlikely to be further developed to support future versions of the macOS.
WineBottler is available from the web site www.winebottler.kronenberg.org. You can use WineBottler to package your own Windows applications for use on the Mac. For the Himalayan Database, we have already packaged it for you with WineBottler and it is ready for immediate use.
Appendix L to the Himalayan Database Program Guide describes the installation and use of the Himalayan Database with Wine.
