I have managed to sort out a solution to the curses problem with wineconsole, but I noticed that -backend=user doesn't work properly either. I get a window with alternating stripes of black and the root window image and text output doesn't emerge (perhaps a font problem ?). I uploaded an image of the problem to: http://members.optusnet.com.au/bobl/wineconsole.png
Guesses anyone ?
I set +wineconsole and got

did you try to pick up another font for the console and then get back to "Wine Courier" ? Likely, there's a discrepency between font cell size (in registry) and what the font actually does.
