It's one thing to make the tests pass but another to have Wine act a certain way.
- If there are so many different results, how can one cater for that in the tests? Having a lot of different possible results for a test to pass looks a bit strange. - Wine currently acts (with certain data) different than all the mentioned OS's. How do we cater in Wine for all the differences, or is win98 the default? Paul.
