Then how do you know of their existance ;-). If wineboot is not 
installed, that's a bug. We should fix it.

I'll try to help with the things I know. This is far from authorative on 
most, however.

Not browse. At least, not yet.

the last two are not yet done. Also not yet done is for wineboot to 
automatically run when needed. Currently you have to manually run it 
after you install something.

Yep, using horrid green colors. I'm sorry if I have offended the author 
(Joshua Thielen, are you still with us?)

I think this is an executable that, given a Unix path, will tell you 
what Wine sees it like (i.e. - you tell it ~/c/windows, and it tells you 
C:\Windows). I'm not sure on that one.

Anyone knows where it is? It was never based on the winehq sources.
