--- Comment #54 from Diego paloseco@gmail.com 2010-07-23 04:55:51 --- There are programs that need the MFC.dll series and copying from windows installation won't work even if they are the same.
If we work better with notepad.exe and regedit.exe implemented, shy wouldn't we implement also some other libraries? If wine had strictly APIs will be unusable. How many programs and libraries to implement as open source? Well, from my point of view in depends on how much progress in the development are we achieving.
I think religious or ethical issues like not developing libraries for a program that read the bible or another that generates keys or another that decompiles software, is a seatback in wine development. If not developing them, I think it should obbey to other reasons.
I have an example 19KB program written in Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 and needs the following libraries (see attachment for details).
