Development method

[David Hemmo]

Hello,

Right now, each time I make a modification (even one line) I do a 
'make' followed by a 'make install'.
Is there a faster way ?

Thanks

Try skip the 'make install', and instead run wine from the build 
directory. eg.

~/src/wine/wine regedit

I make a point of never installing Wine to make sure I don't accidently 
run an older installed version that didn't get overwritten properly.

You can also just have a script called wine in your path, that does something like

#!/bin/bash
/path/to/wine $*
just check you don't have other files in your path called wine.

I'll keep your solution
