[PATCH 0/2] MR4114: loader: Associate Wine with batch files.

[Alex Henrie (＠alexhenrie)]

It is really nice to be able to double-click batch files and have them run in an interactive console window, just like on Windows.

If this patch doesn't work for you, you may need a newer version of the shared-mime-info package.
