It was already being addressed in the wine tools -> wine doors thread.  So
your flame (more like attack) did nothing good at all that wasnt already
being done.  Next time you have something that you want done (or addressed)
just bring it up in a new thread, and dont be so rude about it.  You will
find a much more positive result (as opposed to 3 threads all going on abou=

I wouldn't do it in a huge diff.  Break it up, because I have noticed that
AJ usually wont commit huge diffs as is.

Hardly. I have actually done something good. I got people to addresses
the Winetools problem a bit early. Sure, it would have gotten adressed
anyways, but only after enough complains come rolling in, months or
years from now. When I sent the flame, i had a purpose, a plan, and a
hoped outcome. The end result was nothing but good, so why shun me? I
was just getting a matter addressed before we have no choice but to
address it. We can't just put it off forever, you \
