Say I have Steam for Linux installed but I want to play a windows-only game (purchased from Steam) through Wine. Must I play it through a WINE-version of Steam, or can I just add it to my Linux library as an external executable and launch it from LinuxSteam?
In other words: do I absolutely have to have two versions of Steam installed to play both ELF bins and .exe games purchased through Steam?
