Let me know what you think of all this.
While we're on the topic on the registry..
In addition to searching I think it would be very useful to be able to
import a Windows .reg file. For instance, an app I have uses the
registry as a massive data store. There are literally thousands of
keys and values sitting in there. It would be nice to export a small
branch of the registry and just import that into Wine.
I was under the impression that Wine could already import registry
files. . . am I mistaken?
If I remember correctly, yes, the following command is enough:
$ regedit file.reg
This doesn't work for Windows NT .reg files though, as they are
generated in Unicode format by default. It shouldn't require too many
changes for regedit to work with Unicode files. The changes to the
profile functions in kernel32 to work with Unicode were simple enough.
