Running 64bit Gutsy...

Installed Wine from Synaptic. Installed fine, notepad runs.

Installed Final Draft 7, application opens, menu pops up then it suddenly closes on its own...

I've tried running it in different modes, 2000, XP, vista... nothing changes...

what could this be caused by?

Wine is impressive considering the tasks it is asked to perform but unfortunately not everything works perfectly(Or at all in some cases)

Have you tried running the program from a terminal to see what output wine gives? Also, check on Wines appDB to see how applications run/don't run with wine.

The application doesn't look to promising unfortunately, seems to have some issues.
