[Bug 13963] New: Start Menu items with '&' won't appear
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13963 Summary: Start Menu items with '&' won't appear Product: Wine Version: 1.0-rc5 Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: spock128(a)gmail.com Created an attachment (id=14124) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=14124) diff of non- and working .menu files When installing programs that create Start Menu shortcuts, any *.lnk files with an & (ampersand) in the filename will be incorrectly converted into freedesktop/Gnome .menu files. In the generated .menu file, a reference to a .desktop file can be created without properly escaping the & in the .desktop file name (replace & with &). This was tested by installing Tribes 2 from http://renwerx.com/dl.cgi?tribes2_gsi.exe - the contents of Start Menu\Dynamix\Tribes2\ will not appear (except for Classic\) under Gnome 2.20 due to the malformed .menu file. Once escaped, the shortcuts appear as normal. I presume this isn't specific to Tribes 2, but it is the only app I know of that is subject to it. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13963 --- Comment #2 from spock128(a)gmail.com 2008-12-19 22:35:55 --- This still shows up using Wine 1.1.10 and Gnome 2.22.3. The problem is mitigated now by wine placing each shortcut in its own .menu file, but the menu with the & is still not showing up until I manually change it. In this case, the menu file is "~/.config/menus/applications-merged/wine-Programs-Dynamix-Tribes2-Tribes2 Solo & Lan.menu", which is attempting to load "wine-Programs-Dynamix-Tribes2-Tribes 2 Solo & Lan.desktop". Since this is an xml file, Gnome is trying to interpret the "&" as an escape sequence, and it fails to parse. Replacing "&" with "&" causes Gnome to display the shortcut properly. I don't know if this is an error in Wine or Gnome, but it seems like it should be a relatively easy fix (once directed to the appropriate people). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

From Damjan in Bug 16279:
The ampersand (&) is not valid in XML documents and needs to be escaped (into &). We don't do any escaping in winemenubuilder. A few other characters like <, >, and " would also need escaping. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
