Hi Alan,
I think you need to call the .exe file from a shell script which goes in
your bin directory - the script should be of the form:
#!/bin/bash
. findwine
$WINE "c:\\some_directory\\another_directory\\program_name.exe" $@
&>/dev/null &
You can then run the script from the command line (or Nautilus) - hope
that helps.
