[KLUG Members] Update about Bill's wine question

Still more progress...

This application seems to have been wrapped with a cross platform launcher. So, I suspect there was a good chance that native Linux Java JRE could run the app. There was a config file that tells the 
launcher EXE what Java class to launch, the classpath, etc...

I created a shell script to test launching the app, and have JRE 1.5.0.13 installed. The app window comes up noticeably faster.

However, several dialogs pop up stating that various graphics files can not be found. It also never completely loads the window - title bar says something like "Loading" whereas in Wine I eventually 
saw that message change possibly indicating it was getting further in the Wine environment.

Suggestions... (Or is everyone else busy shopping?)
