	Very strange. If I run "wine notepad /tmp/test.txt" notepad tells me that 
file "mp/test.txt" doesn't exist. But if I execute "cd /; wine notepad 
tmp/test.txt" everything works fine. This looks like a bug. Applications 
launched with Wine always fail to open file if their argument contains "/" at 
the beggining (that means all absolute unix paths cannot be given as 
arguments to Windows programs!).
	Anyway, to solve your problem try the following:

#!/usr/bin/env sh
wine C:\\windows\\efaxview.exe `winepath -w "$@"`
