there are several version of the richedit DLLs.
riched32 should be version 1.0. what your app requires seems to be 
version 2.0 of this DLL.
as of today, version 1.0 is very poorly implemented in wine, and far 
from 2.0...
so you're stuck with either using native riched20.dll, or doing lots of 
hard work to implement version 1.0 and 2.0 (IIRC, there's also a 3.0 
version ;-)

there's a winfile compatible (winefile) in the programs directory, but 
this isn't really an explorer clone. however making it explorer.exe 
compatible (from the command line point of view) shouldn't be too 
difficult. but there are lots of other stuff in there (DDE server for 
example) which will require quite some work too.
