wine users - Oct 2009 - Wine "desktop integration" folder mappings

I have a question I am hoping someone can help me with.

When Wine creates a prefix, it seems to map for you My Documents and My Music
and such on Mac OS X over to Documents ... etc.... which is nice.  You can also
manually map these in Winecfg

My problem is that I want to figure out how I can go about telling Wine to do
this again for an already established wineprefix/bottle...

is there some simple command you can give that sets this up, and maybe makes the
Users folder in drive_c for you?

If not, where in the reg files is this information stored?  I could write a
custom program that find all this info and generates a .reg file and imports it
into the wine registry automatically.

I need this because it helps for some programs when making a wine based portable
program moving from computer to computer under different users... and I want to
make it automatically set up these links and not have to manually do it in
winecfg on every machine that runs it... its a feature I'm looking to add
into Wineskin (http://wiki.winehq.org/Wineskin)... and I'm figuring out and
making everything up as I go  :-)

ok.. well i figure it out myself... so in case anyone else wants to know...

All I had to do is...


Code:
wine wineboot -u



and it updates the prefix, including adding user folder and some symlinks.

Yes, make your O/S follow the XDG open standard see
http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-0.6.html

Of course you can define those env vars yourself that Wine uses (see
_SHCreateSymbolicLinks() function and all what's related to it:
http://source.winehq.org/source/dlls/shell32/shellpath.c#L2141 )

I think just manually making the symlinks is a lot easier... well not really
manually, just outside of Wine...
