The programs in /programs clock etc. are winelib programs. They are
*nix programs that require the wine libraries to run hense "WineLib".
You first have to comple them.
$ cd programs
$ make depend && make
# su
# make install
if I want to run clock I run "clock" not "wine clock" or
"wine
clock.exe". One thing though. clock and clock.so should be accessable
from a a drive defined in ~/.wine/config otherwise it can give you
errors. If you do not do the final make install as root clock is not in
the unix path but I can still run by specifying exactly where it is, for
example ~/wine/programs/clock. Beware I use clock as an example but it
is not a really really great program.
