Hello Patrick:
You recently wrote on wine-devle about your "condensing-ware" winapi_test project.
Is there room in this thing for arbitrary regression tests too? We are working my
way through the semi-annual Corel mega merge and would like some way of verifying that
the bugs we (Corel and
WineHQ) have fixed stay fixed.
Albert.
