Hi Alexandre,

A few applications crash at startup with a null pointer dereference. I'd need to read \
up some more on Wine debugging to understand why. Icon and cursor resources don't \
load, but like with the menus it's just because the format is slightly different. It \
shouldn't be difficult to add support for that as most of the required code is \
already in Wine. Other than that, it's surprising how ~30 year old applications can \
still work on a modern OS!

Regards,
Martin
