Do you mean <wine>/documentation? Surely wine.man.in was there last I
looked. WINEPRELOAD is alive and well in man wine:
WINEPRELOAD
If set, specifies the full name of a shared library
that wine loads and runs as a Winelib application.
That is how I will run the little winelib program that sends this
letter, but calling wine by a symbolic link also works.
Now for _my_ version of "Why are you doing this?": Why run it with
--debugmsg +all ?? If you have the source, can you not tell what
functions it is using/interested in/unhappy with the behavior of?
+all spews so much noise it is worthless, and I suspect snoop and relay
traces may interfere with one another in some cases. For general
debugging, +relay is what you want.
