[Wine] Re: No config file

[Segin]

The config file itself is a patch to the Wine registry. All oyu have to 
do is find out what path the entries are relative to (I forgot), and 
merge the changes accordingly.
For example, if the registry base path for the config is 
HKLM\\Software\\Wine\\Config, and you want to merge a change in section 
WineSettings\\Version, the registry path would be 
HKLM\\Software\\Wine\\Config\\WineSettings\\Version.
