You are giving it the whole thing as one string.  What do you
expect?  :-).  Use -- to get wine to stop interpreting arguments and
just pass them to the app, if necessary.  There is a note on this in man
wine (:-!).

By the example in the man page, it might be

wine -- hl.exe -console -nojoystick -windowed

I think

wine hl.exe -- -console -nojoystick -windowed

would be more like it.  Experiment with it a bit, and if all else fails,
read the fine manual.

You can only run one windose program per wine command now.  This is a
feature.  'cuz Alexandre said so.

This mail client runs on Wine.  Your mileage may vary.
