OK, I guess I'll just wait for his answer on this then.

Also, I am having some troubles into tricking the SHBrowseForFolder 
thingy into using a different root folder, since I guess I need to use 
SHParseDisplayName 
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/shell/reference/functions/shparsedisplayname.asp) 
for that, but that doesn't seem to be implemented in Wine.

Finally, I don't know how to free PIDLS. In the MSDN documentation they 
use C++ calls for that, but I don't know how to port that to C.

Well, anyways, now I understand why you didn't do the directory browser 
yet :-D.

Cheers,
Robert
