[Bug 23153] New: OS X cannot redirect steam:// URL to Steam.exe
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23153 Summary: OS X cannot redirect steam:// URL to Steam.exe Product: Wine Version: 1.1.44 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.6 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: richardcavell(a)mail.com Created an attachment (id=28798) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=28798) Dialog box I am running the PC version of Steam within OS X. I have installed Half-Life. Now I would like to install the high-definition pack. The way to do this is to visit the link: steam://installaddon/halflifehd However, clicking on this link does not automatically send the click to Steam (so whatever API is used by Steam to register steam:// to redirect to Steam.exe is having no effect). When I click on the above link, I get a dialog box within OS X (attached). From within this dialog, I can select any OS X application (*.app) to receive the steam:// click. However, if I navigate my drive_c directory, all Windows executables, including Steam.exe, are gray and cannot be selected. Therefore, I cannot redirect it to the PC version of Steam. (It's worth noting that one could redirect it to the Mac version of Steam). This is obviously a problem with Wine fitting into the OS X design paradigm. But the program doesn't work as it's supposed to, so it's a bug.

This is an unimplemented feature. This feature can't really be implemented, because only actual mac apps can open URLs (or files), and Wine is not a real Mac app. You should be able to install the HD pack by running: wine iexplore and putting the Steam URL in the address box there. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

Correct. (Where "real Mac app" should be read as "bundled Mac app".)
You should be able to install the HD pack by running:
wine iexplore
and putting the Steam URL in the address box there.
Even easier would be: wine start steam://installaddon/halflifehd -- 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.
