RE: [PATCH] winecfg => control panel applets patch

[Vijay Kiran Kamuju]

Hi,

This is regarding the control panel applet patch you have submitted to
wine-patches.
I would like to have the applets should be part of wine's control program.
They would be better be as files in the /programs/control/
And you should extend the existing control.exe  and winecfg in wine to
open these applets.

Please correct me if I am wrong.
Just my 2 cents.

Hmm, I could use more feedback on that one.
