Turambar and I have identified a bug in the WeiDU code. Check out my summary of the problem here:
http://www.shsforums...006#entry536006

The WeiDU code makes the fairly reasonable assumption that if it's running on a Mac it's dealing with a Mac version of BG2. This only really matters when saving new BIFF entries to CHITIN.KEY where the Mac version stores them as BIFDATA:newbiff.bif but the PC version stores them as BIFDATA\newbiff.bif. In other words, the Mac version of BG2 uses ':' and the PC version uses '\'.

However, in the age of Wine, WeiDU can't make the assumption. A lot of Mac users are going to install the PC version from GOG or from their old PC discs. Instead, WeiDU has to determine which version of BG2 it's working with and use the correct string based off of that.

So then... who do I contact to submit a fix request? ^_^
