[Wine] Automatically close Windows program on crash?

[Chris Angelico]

I have a program that, under certain circumstances, will crash out
with the "Serious Error" popup. In order to better probe the crash
with an automated test harness, I'd like to be able to skip that popup
and just have the process terminate. Is there a way to do that? Tell
Wine "hey, if this program segfaults, just close it without asking
me"?

Hoping this is something really easy, but I couldn't find anything on
'man wine' or similar.

Yep, that looks like it, thanks! It's unfortunately hard to search for something
like this - any search involving "wine crash" will be talking about specific
programs that crash and how to deal with it (to stop them from crashing),
not about the crash dialog itself. But thanks, that's what I needed! [...]

This kind of a "popup" issue, sounds like what windows does when
any program hits the abort() function.
Can you make a screenshot of that window?
Maybe wine tries to exacly emulate what windows does, in that case I
think you can attach
a debugger to the process?
