What works
Installation
I followed Quinn's advices :
OK for replacing Jet40, Riched20 and 30.
But pb of "Sha1sum mismatch" when replacing mfc42.dll
I found the solution here, in the second post :
http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=16479
I downloaded VC6redistSetup_deu.exe and typed in a terminal 2 spells ;-) :
- cabextract -q VC6redistSetup_deu.exe
( then move vcredist.exe in ~/.cache/winetricks/vcrun6)
- winetricks vcrun6 .
And i was able to install stickies
----------------
Stickies work perfectly (except several small bugs, mentionned in "What does not work).
- Creation, modification, formatting, backup, store...
- "Set all" Menu, Rescue offscreen ...
- Networking (with Windows XP, Vista and Seven PCs ), friends...
What does not
- No "Start Menu" option/launcher created. (I had to do it myself)Alt-F4
- "Exit" Hotkey does not work.
- Titles shown in the Manage Stickies Window for notes that don't have a set title are weird- missing-character rectangles and apparently random text.
- When receiving stickies through the network, focus comes automatically on the sticky. il you are keyboarding, you can erase sticky's contects. I avoided this problem by receiving all stickies in secret mode.
Workarounds

All of Stickies' dependencies have outdated links in Winetricks version 20120308. I have found links that work as of August 14, 2012 and added them to Winetricks, which allows it to install them correctly. No other changes were made. You can download my slightly-modified version at this google docs link:

It appears this app may require an updated version of msftedit.dll. I am currently testing the version which can be extracted from Hotfix kb883483 (download page here, requires license agreement to download), and am working with the dev to resolve the remaining issues.
