If you apply the attached patch and import the attached registry file (which registers a junction point for the unixfs shell namespace extension), you can select and open files from the unix filesystem in notepad (The file has to be accessible by a drive letter based wine path though).
In retrospect this is not as surprising as I first thought. If I pay for some beer, perhaps at wineconf someone can give me some insight on the unix path <-> wine path conversion magic ;)
Bye,
Hi,
nice!
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\Namespace{CC702EB2-7DC5-11D9-C687-0004238A01CD}] @="My Unix Filesystem"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ShellExtensions]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ShellExtensions\Approved] "{CC702EB2-7DC5-11D9-C687-0004238A01CD}"="My UNIX Filesystem"
Now what? Is it UNIX or Unix?
I'd much prefer Unix, BTW, since it's not an acronym AFAIK.

Oops, as you see I'm undecided ;) (Anyway, this probably should be GNU ;) However, in the final version I would like this to appear not at all in the shell namespace, anyway. I think it would be nice if the '/' appears beside the wine drive letters under 'My Computer'.
