Yes. There is many ways to do this. One of them is to run your program like
this:
WINEDEBUG=+file wine notepad
Obviously, instead of "notepad" you should use name of your program. You can
use grep to filter for particular pattern (for example, if you interested
only in files with .txt extension you can run this command:
WINEDEBUG=+file wine notepad | grep -i .txt
Alternatively you can use strace. For example (this command will work in
zsh):
strace wine notepad |& grep -i .txt
If you are using bash you can use this command instead:
strace wine notepad 2>&1| grep -i .txt
You should use grep to filter strace output to see only things you interested
in: for example extension, path (full or partial) or file related operations
(for example "grep -i stat64\(" or "grep -i open\("). I suggest you to play
with notepad to understand how it works then try it with your program.
