Still the same error. That should be enough, unless emacs does something funky with the first line. I use [mkdir ~/.wine] cp <wine>/documentation/samples/config ~/.wine joe ~/.wine Substitute the path where you put the wine source tree for <wine>. any text editor should do, but don't change the first line. Oh yes, you (or wineinstall or something) must create that ~/.wine directory first, or the cp I used above will create a _file_ ~/.wine > > Am I missing something here?
