It is empty. Microsoft provides some default .url files in there. So why shouldn't you? It would provide better integration, as the Wine link would appear in Explorer, Internet Explorer and other file managers, browsers and other software that imports favorites/bookmarks from the Favorites folder in the user's home directory. Only 111 bytes is needed, and it can be implemented in less than a minute. ------ [InternetShortcut] URL=http://www.winehq.org/ IDList= [{000214A0-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}] Prop3=19,2 --------- -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Wine project has nothing to do with your preferences or your web browser's favourites list. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Invalid, Wine doesn't have browser. But you can run Internet Explorer (and maybe other browsers that store the favorites in the same place) on Wine.

No, in Wine interests is to make Wine code work better. Everything else is outside of the Wine project.

Right, and they have their own set of favourites, and don't care to ask whether you like it or not. In any case, if you wish some site appear in favorites of your browser, either add it by hands, or send a patch/complaint to your browser developers.

Wrong! We do integration in the "host-system" and also into the programs we could run. So IMHO adding such registry-keys is a integration-interest. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
