I am playing a guessing game and really don't know what I am saying.

Try this.


    M-: (shell-quote-argument (read-string "Enter string:"))
         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

When prompted enter

    whatever wine whatever "%s"

Now put whatever string you get in *Pp Eval Output* DIRECTLY in to your
.emacs.  See the attached snippet.el for what I get.

Instead of passing env as part of the command, I think you can add this
to your .emacs.

    (setenv "WINEPREFIX" "/home/AW/.wine-office")

You can also do

    M-x setenv

to set environment variables.
