Well, not if Wine is actually accepting arguments The Right Way (tm). You
command line will make argv[1] = "c:\winnt\winhlp32.exe", argv[2] =
"d:\borland\Borland", and argv[3] = "Shared\MSHelp\win32.hlp"
The correct way to pass the arguments would be:
wine "c:\winnt\winhlp32.exe" "d:\borland\Borland Shared\MSHelp\win32.hlp"
Of course thats just my opinion, I could be wrong
