Then, if you need to reinstall anything in a new prefix, you won't end up reinstalling everything else too. I do this as a matter of course and write a tiny wrapper script to run each program - this script can be run from the command line or by clicking an icon - you make the launcher run the script rather than issuing the wind command directly: =========start of script============= #!/bin/bash export WINEPREFIX=.wine_myapp cd $WINEWPREFIX/path/to/the/exe wine myapp.exe \/opts arguments ==========end of script============== and make the script executable before trying to run it.
