I was just one line to change. This week the fix has been overtaken. I'm sorry, but I for myself really not motivated to assist a team who needs so much time, if I suggest a fix directly inside the related source code. I'm thinking to allow the usage of my shareware application under Wine for free. So native Windows user should pay for it - but not Wine users. I'm thinking about this to support Linux and Wine in respect of all the work. To do this I need a way to detect Wine as well. So imho this is a good reason to allow Windows programs to detect Wine. Since Wine is still very buggy and I'm not motivated to bother my users 8 month with a Wine bug - I would implement work a rounds into my application. For this I need to detect the Wine version as well. PS Please do not answer this posting. This is not a request about help - it's a note to think about it...
