wine users - Sep 2009 - Starting Linux apps from inside Windows app running under wine

Hi folks,

        I was wondering how could I manage to start Linux applications 
from 
inside a Windows app running under wine in order to deal with some 
extensions
Linux already deal with.
        I saw "winebrowser" is a frontend for xdg-open and xdg-open
deals
with
Linux extensions.
        I already have discussed this topic at:
http://web.archive.org/web/20060118013706/http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-users/2005/05/0051.html
and there I have proposed a shell script for each type of extension (PDF 
in that case).
        Now, since winebrowser can deal with that, I made a small list to 
deal with
a few extensions (follows below) just calling winebrowser. Just put/append 
that list in 
your ~/.wine/system.reg (don't forget to kill wine *before* append the 
list: wineserver -k)
        However, I would like to suggest to wine team if thatmkin of thing 
could be done 
automagically. I mean, wine (or winecfg) could search the Linux mime 
database and fill out 
the ~/.wine/system.reg.
        Wine is a great piece of software and, in my opinion, it is the 
missing link in order
to Linux gain desktop market share.

Best regards.
