      basic Wine invocation, command line parameters of various Wine
      support programs etc.

      <title>Basic usage: applications and control panel applets</title>
      <para>
        Assuming you are using a fake Windows installation, you install
        applications into Wine in the same way you would in Windows: by
        running the installer. You can just accept the defaults for
        where to install, most installers will default to "C:\Program
        Files", which is fine. If the application installer requests it,
        you may find that Wine creates icons on your desktop and in your
        app menu. If that happens, you can start the app by clicking on
        them.
      </para>

      <para>
        The standard way to uninstall things is for the application to
        provide an uninstaller, usually registered with the "Add/Remove
        Programs" control panel applet.
        To access the Wine equivalent, run the <command>uninstaller</command>
        program (it is located in the
        <filename>programs/uninstaller/</filename> directory in a Wine
        source directory) in a <glossterm>terminal</glossterm>:
      </para>

      <screen>
        <prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>uninstaller</userinput>
      </screen>

      <para>
        Some programs install associated control panel applets, examples
        of this would be Internet Explorer and QuickTime. You can access
        the Wine control panel by running in a
        <glossterm>terminal</glossterm>:
      </para>

      <screen>
         <prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>wine control</userinput>
      </screen>

      <para>
        which will open a window with the installed control panel
        applets in it, as in Windows.
      </para>

      <para>
        If the application doesn't install menu or desktop items, you'll
        need to run the app from the command line. Remembering where you
        installed to, something like:
      </para>

      <screen>
         <prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>wine "c:\program files\appname\appname.exe"</userinput>
      </screen>

      <para>
        will probably do the trick. The path isn't case sensitive, but
        remember to include the double quotes.  Some programs don't
        always use obvious naming for their directories and EXE files,
        so you might have to look inside the program files directory to
        see what was put where.

        <title>WINEDEBUG=[channels]</title>
        <para>
          Wine isn't perfect, and many Windows applications still
          don't run without bugs under Wine (but then, a lot of programs
          don't run without bugs under native Windows either!).  To
          make it easier for people to track down the causes behind
          each bug, Wine provides a number of <firstterm>debug
          channels</firstterm> that you can tap into.
        </para>
        <para>
          Each debug channel, when activated, will trigger logging
          messages to be displayed to the console where you invoked
          <command>wine</command>.  From there you can redirect the
          messages to a file and examine it at your leisure.  But be
          forewarned!  Some debug channels can generate incredible
          volumes of log messages.  Among the most prolific offenders
          are <parameter>relay</parameter> which spits out a log
          message every time a win32 function is called,
          <parameter>win</parameter> which tracks windows message
          passing, and of course <parameter>all</parameter> which is
          an alias for every single debug channel that exists.  For a
          complex application, your debug logs can easily top 1 MB and
          higher.  A <parameter>relay</parameter> trace can often
          generate more than 10 MB of log messages, depending on how
          long you run the application.  (As described in the
          <link linkend = "config-debug-etc">Debug</link>
          section of configuring wine you can 
          modify what the <parameter>relay</parameter> trace reports).
          Logging does slow down Wine
          quite a bit, so don't use <parameter>WINEDEBUG</parameter>
          unless you really do want log files.
        </para>
        <para>
          Within each debug channel, you can further specify a
          <firstterm>message class</firstterm>, to filter out the
          different severities of errors.  The four message classes
          are:
          <simplelist type="inline">
            <member><parameter>trace</parameter></member>
            <member><parameter>fixme</parameter></member>
            <member><parameter>warn</parameter></member>
            <member><parameter>err</parameter></member>
          </simplelist>.
        </para>
        <para>
          To turn on a debug channel, use the form
          <parameter>class+channel</parameter>.  To turn it off, use
          <parameter>class-channel</parameter>.  To list more than one
          channel in the same <parameter>WINEDEBUG</parameter>
          option, separate them with commas.  For example, to request
          <parameter>warn</parameter> class messages in the
          <parameter>heap</parameter> debug channel, you could invoke
          <command>wine</command> like this:
        </para>
        <screen>
<prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>WINEDEBUG=warn+heap wine <replaceable>program_name</replaceable></userinput>
        </screen>
        <para>
          If you leave off the message class, <command>wine</command>
          will display messages from all four classes for that channel:
        </para>
        <screen>
<prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>WINEDEBUG=heap wine <replaceable>program_name</replaceable></userinput>
        </screen>
        <para>
          If you wanted to see log messages for everything except the
          relay channel, you might do something like this:
        </para>
        <screen>
<prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>WINEDEBUG=+all,-relay wine <replaceable>program_name</replaceable></userinput>
        </screen>
        <para>
          Here is a list of the debug channels and classes in Wine.
          More channels will be added to (or subtracted from) later
          versions.
        </para>

        However, wineserver has some useful command line options that

          Usually, wineserver quits almost immediately after the last
          wine process using this wineserver terminated.
          However, since wineserver loads a lot of things on startup
          (such as the whole Windows registry data), its startup might
          be so slow that it's very useful to keep it from exiting after
          the end of all Wine sessions, by making it persistent.

    <sect1 id="environment-variables">
      <title>Setting Windows/DOS environment variables</title>
      <para>
        Your program might require some environment variable to be set
        properly in order to run successfully.
        In this case you need to set this environment variable in the
        Linux shell, since Wine will pass on the entire shell environment
        variable settings to the Windows environment variable space.
        Example for the bash shell (other shells may have a different syntax
        !):
        <screen>
          export MYENVIRONMENTVAR=myenvironmentvarsetting
        </screen>
        This will make sure your Windows program can access the
        MYENVIRONMENTVAR environment variable once you start your program
        using Wine.
        If you want to have MYENVIRONMENTVAR set permanently, then you can
        place the setting into /etc/profile, or also ~/.bashrc in the case of
        bash.
      </para>
      <para>
        Note however that there is an exception to the rule:
        If you want to change the PATH environment variable, then of
        course you can't modify it that way, since this will alter the
        Unix PATH environment setting. Instead, you should set the
        WINEPATH environment variable. An alternative way to
        indicate the content of the DOS PATH environment variable would
        be to change the "path" setting in the wine config file's <link
        linkend="config-wine">[wine]</link> section.
      </para>

    </sect1>

    <sect1 id="CUI-programs">
      <title>Text mode programs (CUI: Console User Interface)</title>
      <para>Text mode programs are program which output is only made
        out of text (surprise!). In Windows terminology, they are
        called CUI (Console User Interface) executables, by opposition
        to GUI (Graphical User Interface) executables. Win32 API
        provide a complete set of APIs to handle this situation, which
        goes from basic features like text printing, up to high level
        functionalities (like full screen editing, color support,
        cursor motion, mouse support), going through features like
        line editing or raw/cooked input stream support
      </para>
      <para>
        Given the wide scope of features above, and the current usage
        in Un*x world, Wine comes out with three different ways for
        running a console program (aka a CUI executable):

      <para>The names here are a bit obscure. "bare streams" means
        that no extra support of wine is provide to map between the
        unix console access and Windows console access. The two other
        ways require the use of a specific Wine program (wineconsole)
        which provide extended facilities. The following table
        describes what you can do (and cannot do) with those three 
        ways.

        <para>
          When wineconsole is used, several configuration options are
          available. Wine (as Windows do) stores, on a per application
          basis, several options in the registry. This let a user, for
          example, define the default screen-buffer size he would like
          to have for a given application.
        </para>
        <para>
          As of today, only the USER backend allows you to edit those
          options (we don't recommend editing by hand the registry
          contents). This edition is fired when a user right click in
          the console (this popups a menu), where you can either
          choose from:
          <itemizedlist>
            <listitem>
              <para>
                Default: this will edit the settings shared by all
                applications which haven't been configured yet. So,
                when an application is first run (on your machine,
                under your account) in wineconsole, wineconsole will
                inherit this default settings for the
                application. Afterwards, the application will have its
                own settings, that you'll be able to modify at your will.
              </para>
              <para>
                Properties: this will edit the application's
                settings. When you're done, with the edition, you'll
                be prompted whether you want to:

                  <listitem>
                    <para>
                      Keep these modified settings only for this
                      session (next time you run the application, you
                      will not see the modification you've just made).

                      Use the settings for this session and save them
                      as well, so that next you run your application,
                      you'll use these new settings again.

                  <entry>
                    Defines the size of the cursor. Three options are
                    available: small (33% of character height), medium
                    (66%) and large (100%)

                    It's been said earlier that wineconsole
                    configuration popup was triggered using a right
                    click in the console's window. However, this can
                    be an issue when the application you run inside
                    wineconsole expects the right click events to be
                    sent to it. By ticking control or shift you select
                    additional modifiers on the right click for
                    opening the popup. For example, ticking shift will
                    send events to the application when you right
                    click the window without shift being hold down,
                    and open the window when you right-click while
                    shift being hold down.

                    This tick box lets you decide whether left-click

                    as a selection of rectangular part of the screen
                    to be later on copied onto the clipboard (tick on).

                    This lets you pick up how many commands you want
                    the console to recall. You can also drive whether
                    you want, when entering several times the same
                    command - potentially intertwined with others -
                    whether you want to store all of them (tick off)
                    or only the last one (tick on).

                    The Police property sheet allows you to pick the

                    The console as you see it is made of two different
                    parts. On one hand there's the screenbuffer which
                    contains all the information your application puts
                    on the screen, and the window which displays a
                    given area of this screen buffer. Note that the
                    window is always smaller or of the same size than
                    the screen buffer. Having a strictly smaller window
                    size will put on scrollbars on the window so that
                    you can see the whole screenbuffer's content.

                    If it's ticked, then the wineconsole will exit
                    when the application within terminates. Otherwise,
                    it'll remain opened until the user manually closes
                    it: this allows seeing the latest information of a
                    program after it has terminated.
