request small changes to winecfg
Hi, now that winecfg is reaching maturity it is a great tool, but two things may merit a small change. 1/ emulate desktop is still at a "historic" size of 640,480 which at least on my screen is too small to display winecfg's natural height next time I run it. Would 600x800 be a better default? 2/ Adding dll overrides. On entering a dll name I have the habit of hitting the Enter key. This triggers the OK button and drops me back to the command line with the incomplete change being lost. (NO, I dont want an "are you sure..." message!) I dont know where I have this expectation from but certainly a habit I have formed using other software. Would it be more intuitive if the enter key was trapped by the editbox and triggered a click on the "Add" button? It certainly comes as a surprise when it exits winecfg. regards.

I need to resend my patch which keeps the previous Desktop version set when disabling it. This way once you set it to a correct value, it will remember what you asked for when you re-enable it. Lionel -- Lionel Ulmer - http://www.bbrox.org/

I looked at this a long time ago, when first reworking winecfg. I think it's hard to do this because of the property sheet control. Dumping it was on the todo list.
