wine users - May 2006 - tweaking wine - picasa version

Hello,

I installed picasa and this installed a customized version of wine too.
Picasa works very well and so I have the hope that other graphic editors 
could work well with this wine-version too.

I want to run Photoline32 (available at http://www.pl32.com)

I dont understand much about wine and the scripts delivered with the 
picasa-version are rather complicated - almost unreadable for me ;-)

Is there an /easy/ way to tweak the picasa version of wine, so that it 
can start another application or maybe arbitrary applications?

Another question: The next versions for Photoline will probably be 
multiprocessor-enabled. Could this interfere with operation under
wine?

TIA,

Peter

I think that would be only by chance, if at all. The cutomized wine
version is exactly that - a version customized to run picasa.

I wouldn't waste my time trying to do that. The fact that one
application that displays and organizes pictures works bears no
relevance to the usability of another application. And since, as you
say, this special version is rather hard to use I can see really no
point in doing so.
