Where can I get a file of the .prz persuasion ?

FYI the Wine project has a ChangeLog :-)

2000-10-23:
        * objects/region.c, windows/painting.c, windows/scroll.c:
        Ulrich Weigand <weigand@immd1.informatik.uni-erlangen.de>
        Fixed painting problems in non-MM_TEXT modes.

So all you have to do is get wine from 2000-10-24 and say
us if it was working then. Don't worry, tons of things have
changed since that can have broken Ulrich's fix.
