Hi
I would like to have more then one .wine directories. Is it possible to
change the name of the .wine directory to e.g. .wineSomeOtherName and
still be able to use it? I could do it in a script and simply rename the
directories, but I would prefer to call wine with e.g. an additional
parameter to specify the folder to use.
-> man wine ;)

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
wine makes the environment variables of the shell from which wine is started accessible to
the windows/dos processes started. So use the appropriate syntax for your shell to enter
environment variables you need.
WINEPREFIX
If set, the content of this variable is taken as the name of the directory where wine
stores its data (the default is $HOME/.wine ). This directory is also used to iden-
tify the socket which is used to communicate with the wineserver. All wine processes
using the same wineserver (i.e.: same user) share certain things like registry,
shared memory, and config file. By setting WINEPREFIX to different values for dif-
ferent wine processes, it is possible to run a number of truly independent wine pro-
cesses.

So if you changed your ~/.wine to ~/.wineSomeOtherName, just run wine like that:
WINEPREFIX=~/.wineSomeOtherName wine app.exe
