Hi,
I'm looking into porting our graphic application language to Linux usign WineLib but having some trouble just getting started.
I downloaded and installed wine-0.9.8-SuSELinux92.i586.rpm for our SUSE 9.2 system and then tried to create the 'notepad' program using the instructions given on http://www.winehq.org/site/docs/winelib-guide/winelib-getting-started .
Unfortunately after following the instructions I ended up with a 'notepad.exe.so' not a simple ./notepad file.
Our goal is to create a true executable file, not a ".so" library that needs to be invoked using Wine.
Have the build instructions changed?

With winelib, there is no way to make a "true" executable without any dependencies on wine; you could make a wrapper script so that the user does not have to type 'wine' anymore - this is what winelib used to do, which made the 'notepad' file in the documentation (that part of the documentation is a little out dated I'm affraid)
HTH,
