Well, his icon shortcut may be calling WINE itself.  The smiley was
pretty much just because it was on the desktop, right where it would
be on Windows.

I installed WINE on my Mac the other night, and it defaulted to
automatically executing Windows binaries.  I just wanted to see if I
could get Visual Studio running on it for the sake of being overly
bored (Minesweeper and Notepad ran fine, which surprised me since I am
on a G4 and not a X86).  Now I have to find where WINE decided to
install the config files to (it didn't ask me).
