thanks for your comment.

I am aware of how linux/unix works , I've been using it for 10yrs, this was not 
a personal request. 

My suggestion is that your target audience for Wine are likely to be less 
familiar.

If the best point of reference is man wine or a full documentation on how to 
use wien is available on line, let's say so. It's hardly breaking the rules to 
a one line like:

for more detail use man wine command or visit http://winehq.org/.....

One gets the feeling that the current attitude to a new user is "we're not here 
to teach you how to use linux so if you're too dumb to sort it out we sure 
arn't going to tell you. It's not our job."

Is that really the migration path you have been working so hard to provide for 
over ten years?
