Calmira_Longhorn: http://calmira.co.nr/
Example: http://www.postimage.org/image.php?v=aVBPR4r

######### Test Calmira_Longhorn:
cd <wine_c_drive>
wget http://calmira.kyblsoft.sk/dwnlds/callh36.zip
unzip callh36.zip
cd CALMIRA

To avoid, that the explorer.exe from calmira is used for the desktop,
you need the full path to explorer.exe.so

wine
<your_build_path>/programs/explorer/explorer.exe.so  /desktop=xxx,800x600 
 CALMIRA.EXE


Sometimes, http://www.calmira.org is referenced, but that is outdated
and give you an advertising website
