Hello,

refining summary.
The vendor for "Math Workshop" app provides the same workaround:

http://support.riverdeep.net/fix.asp?isid=36075&prog=1294818625

(cloning WINSPOOL.DRV file to WINSPOOL.DLL)

Though I think these broken apps should rather die than cluttering Wine with
Win9X workarounds.
The number of apps that needs this should be insignificant nowadays...

Regards
