+Environment
+===========
+If you e.g. aren't interested in debugging output, you can set the WINEDEBUG

 Examples:

-$ WINEDEBUG=all wine-development
+$ WINEDEBUG= wine

+32-/64-bit
+==========
+Most Windows binaries are 32-bit applications. You need to install wine32 or
+wine32-development to run them. wine64 alone cannot do this.
+
+On 64-bit systems you need to enable multiarch to install wine32.
+As root, execute e.g.:
+  dpkg --add-architecture i386 && apt update && apt install wine32
+
+If you have wine32 and wine64 installed Wine will default to a shared 64-bit
+wineprefix that runs (most) 32-bit Windows applications.
+
+If this causes problems for an application you may create a 32-bit wineprefix
+by running e.g.:
+$ WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine32" wineboot
+
+If you don't want 64-bit at all, you may remove wine64 and install wine from a
+32-bit architecture (e.g. wine:i386).
