Hello,
Wine 1.8 announcement mentions EnableShell key:
There is an optional Start Menu in desktop mode, that can be enabled on a per-desktop basis by setting "EnableShell" to "Y" under HKCU\Software\Wine\Explorer\Desktops<name>.
But when I tried to use it, I failed with "Y" string key (i.e. only desktop with special name "shell" got the start button). After reading the sources that key appears to be a DWORD, so it has to be created as a DWORD with value of "1". Also, the key isn't listed @ http://wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys .
What's it supposed to be — a string or a dword? Is it a bug in implementation, or is it a misdocumentation? And should it also be listed @ UsefulRegistryKeys?
It's my mistake when writing the docs, but it would be nice to make it behave like other options. Patches are welcome...
