I have been trying to use the construction budget software "Engwhere Magma" on
Wine 1.3.26.

The protection scheme of this software includes checking a pendrive label and
serial in order to allow you to use it.

But winecfg don't save this data properly. The serial is a two part hexadecimal
number in this format: 4 hexa digits, a minus signal, and more 4 hexa digits.
Example: A1B2-EF0A

By putting the label inside a .windows-label file on the pendrive it is
possible to set correctly the label.

But putting the serial inside a .windows-serial file don't work. Winecfg shows
only the first part of the serial, ignoring everything from the minus signal
until the end. If we put, for instance, A1B2-EF0A on the file, winecfg shows
only A1B2. Somehow winecfg does not accept the minus signal on the serial or
consider it as a line end.
