I'm trying to run different win32 apps with different configs. i was looking thru the man page and found the WINEPREFIX. i added export WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine.icad to my script that i use to launch my application. It seems to find it, but now i'm getting: $ icad wineserver: mkdir /.wine.icad/wineserver-atlanta.ga : No such file or directory ok, i obviously did not understand something. how do i get wine to look in a different directory for it's config and other information. Thanks phrostie

I'd have expected something along the lines of: wineserver: mkdir /home/phrostie/.wine.icad/wineserver-atlanta.ga: No such file or directory or such. In your script, put this line: echo "HOME is $HOME" before you set WINEPREFIX, and this line: echo "WINEPREFIX is $WINEPREFIX" after you set WINEPREFIX, and see if they both look right. Matt.
