Hmm, I have some kind of recommendation here.
What about winetools using ".winetools" as WINEPREFIX setting?
This would make it possible to keep a ".wine" for the purists, and
".winetools" for the "just get things done" people.
Up to now winetools does not seem to honor a WINEPREFIX setting
(also a bug I think).
Ciao, Marcus
