So I was wondering what a 314k floppy drive was. The patch here is called "Add 512k and 314k floppy drive icons". And indeed it mentions IDI_SHELL_5_12_FLOPPY and IDI_SHELL_3_14_FLOPPY.

It took me a while to realize that 5_12 was actually 5 1/2, that is, the familiar 5.25" drive.

Why would you link to some unofficial mirror on GitHub? The source repository of the Wine project is here: https://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git

I was wondering what a 512k floppy drive was, as I grew up with 314k...

Agreed, please update that link in the original story Michael, seems odd to be linking to an obscure git repo.

5.25 drive, checking in. Had such fond memories of my Apple IIc growing up and the games I used to play on that thing.

Thank you for the quick lesson in division by two. It may be obvious in retrospect that 314k and IDI_SHELL_3_14_FLOPPY are actually 3 1/4", but it wasn't for me.
