Hi, everyone--

I know the "w" in the file means Windows. Is there a plugin that will let Linuxers display these files? (Kaffeine comes up and says "no way.") If there is, how do I find it and install it? These are from friends, so I don't think they are knowingly diseased.

Both GIMP and Krita will open them, Then you can edit them and save them as jpeg, png etc. I've used GIMP for several years to do this. Also I think XNVIEW (Free Download) will also do it. Hope this helps

Karbon14 also opens wmf files. don't know how, but that was the first "open with" option on my 10.1 install!!

I was reading too fast, I saw just the wmv extension, wmf is windows metafile, a graphics format... /J' -- "In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice.
