this is an endemic to wine-anything. (s)wine cannot determine the actual
screen size used because the feedback it requires isn't there from the X
server. I don't know more than that, only that I can now pick *any* wine
emulated program simply by loooking at it's screen. I *think* the problem is
related to wine relying on the (now out of favour) x-motif widget set.
The problem is such a biggie for me, that I just dont use wine, period.

well I'll sound like a cracked record here, but code crusader, on the SxS
site, is a preliminary way to go. It understands java coding but doesn't mess
with you too much. As a general purpose coding ide (fortran/ c c++ and beans)
it truthfully can't be beaten. It is (or was) a freebie version of metroworks
code-warrior.
