crossover programs missing from source code

I'm not really interested in the source code, I just want to know what the programs do.

And yes, I forgot about ntoskrnl, the only dll with an exe extension. I generated that list using ls, grep, and diff, and didn't look over it that carefully.

In particular, all the cx* programs are Crossover-specific and should
not appear in upstream wine at any point.

The LGPL doesn't require us to publish the source code of individual

haven't checked the whole list, but most of these are programs
CodeWeavers developed internally and thus controls the copyright on,
and they mostly exist for integration with other components of
CrossOver.

That doesn't mean we can't or shouldn't publish the code, just that we
probably haven't considered it. At the very least, I think we want to
publish the source code of anything that exists for Windows
compatibility.

Note that ntoskrnl.exe is actually in the dlls/ directory of the Wine
source tree, and it should be there in the CrossOver/Wine source code
as well.
