+ Wineinstall does not create FONTS dir in setups with no windows partition.
+ Simple programs that do not install fonts have no problems, I guess wine
+ uses a default font if doesn't fine FONTS dir.
+ Installing an app that installs some fonts too then creates the FONTS dir
+ with added fonts, but obviously with no base fonts; as a result, next app
+ launched in wine will show meaningless boxes instead of chars.
+ I found 2 quick-and-dirty solutions, but I think the best would be install
+ FONTS dir with some default fonts inside from wineinstall :)
+ Quick-and-dirty solutions :
+   1) - Remove FONTS dir again (sigh) -- Apps will use again default font
+   2) - Grab fonts from a windoze partition and put in FONTS dir
+
