💖 WINECFG(1) — the Wine Programs girlies 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to winecfg, the main character of the Wine Programs manual. let's get into it 💅

✨ NAME ✨

winecfg — the Wine Configuration Editor. that's it, that's the name, she's iconic 👑

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

winecfg

no flags, no arguments, no drama. she just is. periodt 💖

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so winecfg is the Wine configuration editor. like, the place where you go to change stuff. and the way she lets you change so many settings?? obsessed 😭✨

here's a lil taste of what she can do:

  • change the DLL load order (native versus builtin) — yes you get to pick, queen 👑
  • enable a virtual desktop 🖥️
  • set up disk drives 💾
  • change the Wine audio driver 🔊
  • and honestly? among others. she contains multitudes 🌈

and here's the part that's genuinely giving main character energy: many of these settings can be made on a per application basis. like, you can have different vibes for different apps. the example everyone loves is preferring native riched20.dll for wordpad.exe, but not for notepad.exe. same DLL, two different apps, two different choices. it's giving customization, it's giving control, it's giving slay 💅

💀 BUGS 💀

found a bug? 😭 no worries bestie, bugs can be reported on the Wine bug tracker. go tell them, they wanna know 🫶

🌸 AVAILABILITY 🌸

winecfg is part of the Wine distribution, which is available through WineHQ, the Wine development headquarters. yes, that WineHQ. the home base. the headquarters. the whole thing 🏠✨
