Associating .exe files with Wine


I want my .exe files to open with Wine by default. By trying to change the icon to something, I messed up the association. My .exe files are no longer associated with Wine, and I can't find Wine in my programs list anywhere to restore the association. Does anyone know how I could fix this? Any advice would be welcome.

Not sure if this works with all distros, but using Nautilus under Fedora Core 3, I just browse to the executable, right click on it, select properties, and go to the open with tab. If you don't see Wine as an option, you can click on the add button and put it in there.

Good luck
