I forgot to mention that if you create symbolic or hard link to a Windows
program outside of its Wine prefix it will not find its Wine prefix and will run
in default one (this is obviously wrong behavior).
I decided to improve my script so it can handle symbolic links to Windows
programs in non-default Wine prefix correctly. For example if you do this
(assuming you have installed Microsoft Word 2007 in ~/.wine-office2007 Wine
prefix):
sudo ln -s ~/.wine-office2007/drive_c/Program\ Files/Microsoft\ Office/Office12/WINWORD.EXE /usr/local/bin/word
...you will be able to run Word 2007 in ~/wine-office2007 Wine prefix by running it
like this:
word
...and open files with it:
word ~/existing-file.doc
Of course you can link like this any Windows program you want. Here is improved
version of the script /usr/local/bin/winestart:

if [[ -z "$WINEPREFIX" ]]; then

RPATH="`realpath \"$1\"`"
WINEPREFIX="`echo \"$RPATH\" | sed 's/\/\.\//\//g;s/\/dosdevices\/.:\//\/drive_c\//;s/\harddiskvolume0/\/drice_c\//' |
awk '
{
split($0, a, "/drive_c/")
printf("%s", a[1]);
}
'`"
export WINEPREFIX
if [[ ! -d "$WINEPREFIX" ]]; then
{
unset WINEPREFIX
} fi
} fi
ARGS="$RPATH"
shift
while [[ "$1" != "" ]]; do
{
FILE="`winepath -w \"$1\" | sed 's/ /\\ /g'`"
if [[ -e "`winepath -u \"$FILE\"`" ]]; then
{
ARGS="$ARGS $FILE"
}
else
{
ARGS="$ARGS $1"
} fi
echo "$ARGS"
shift
} done
wine start /unix "$ARGS"
