I found that QChartist.bas can't be compiled with qtstart.bat under wine 1.0 but it works with wine 1.2

If you have an old computer and install ubuntu 8.04 hardy heron, it has wine 1.0 installed by default.

In order to install wine 1.2 under ubuntu 8.04 :

- modify your sources.list file with

deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy main restricted

deb-src http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy main restricted

...

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu/ hardy main

deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu/ hardy main

- do a sudo apt-get update

- You need to install the updated packages with a sudo update-manager

- Then do a sudo apt-get install wine

Now you have wine 1.2 installed and QChartist will work pretty well.
