Hi all,
I was trying to compile the test application (Notepad) with winelib to get a feel for how to use it. I followed the instructions in your docs, but ended up with a target file notepad2.exe.so. The instructions imply that I should end up with an executable called notepad2, since they tell me to run it.
If I run the .so file it segfaults, so I assume it really is a shared library and not just an executable with a funny name.
I want to understand what I've done wrong here, because if I can't get this right I certainly won't be able to port anything complicated. I'm sorry if this has been asked often before, but I couldn't find an easy way of searching the mailing list.
I am using WINE-0.9.4 built by Adam Schreiber for Slackware 10.2.
Regards, Rich.
P.S. Here is my output (so you can see exactly what I did):

rich@radhagovinda:/usr/local/src/wine-0.9.4/programs/notepad2$ ./notepad2.exe.so Segmentation fault
No winelib application is not a standalone as you would think. You need to run it in the same way as all the rest exe files: 'wine notepad2'.
