Well, the first part of the project was to get the shell namespace
implementation of Control Panel working properly, which is now
effectively complete.

Hi Reece,
I just tested Cepstral SwiftTalker with latest git (see bug:
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12534) and I can't see the
options from the `control` program. You might want to get this and
other applets displaying/working before creating default Wine-specific
ones (e.g. like
I'll look into that, then. I know that the shell namespace control panel
does check the registry for entries (could you try using a program like the
ReactOS Explorer to browse the control panel and see if it shows up there?),
but I'm not sure if the standalone control.exe does. Ideally, the
Wine's builtin control does just launch the shell's version of the
control panel, unless it's given an argument like DESKTOP,
DATE/TIME, etc. See programs/control.c.
Indeed, I'm aware of that. Effectively, there are two versions of the
control panel in the shell of course, the namespace
You might try to make some of those that have an analogue work in
Wine, especially the Legacy Control Panel Commands desktop and
color.
That's something I can look into, indeed.
Having had a brief look into it, currently the control panel attempts to
launch the appropriate .cpl file that

Isn't it more logical (and closer to native) to have a control panel

As we said before, implementing a control panel applet doesn't mean
you have to do anything to the current winecfg code.
True, but would it really benefit to add an icon for each winecfg tab
(which I think is what you are suggesting, yes?) to the control panel,
compared to having one

First, that's not what I was suggesting. I was disagreeing with
adding a winecfg cpl applet. Second, I'm likening winecfg to a very
poorly-designed control panel. There are several categories that can
go into their own cpl applet, like 'Sound' and 'Graphics' (or whatever

I still don't see the need for a winecfg cpl applet at this point.
You say that the Wine Configuration icon is ok for the time being.
Take your time and design it correctly the first time, so you or
others don't have to go back and fix it later. Measure twice, cut
once, as they say. I
