Under "How to Use" in the README/documentation we see

export WINEPREFIX=/path/to/wineprefix
cp x64/*.dll $WINEPREFIX/drive_c/windows/system32
cp x32/*.dll $WINEPREFIX/drive_c/windows/syswow64
winecfg

Is that correct? It seems that 32 and 64 bits are mixed. Should it be

export WINEPREFIX=/path/to/wineprefix
cp x32/*.dll $WINEPREFIX/drive_c/windows/system32
cp x64/*.dll $WINEPREFIX/drive_c/windows/syswow64
winecfg

"syswow64" is short for "system(32) windows on windows64". So while it seems confusing at first, the README gets it right.
