http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10719 Summary: Default Directory should be the directory witch the exe was excuted Product: Wine Version: 0.9.47. Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: wine-binary AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: yellow_onion(a)orcon.net.nz By Defualt windows excutes exes in their directory. if wine did this it would solve alot of problems. as most progam are executed this way in window they assume all the files they need are in same dir for a work around i useually create a script to change dir but this shouldn't be needed. but lanuching in different dir would have to be done another way -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

If you double-click on a .exe in explorer. it is executed from that directory, because you navigated there first. If you run foo.exe from the command line prompt you cded there as well. But try to run ..\..\somedir\foo.exe, then foo.exe is *NOT* run in somedir. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

I did read and launching apps from nautilus [just reports missing file errors] dosen't work as explorer and no linux user should not have to work from wine-explorer to get this to work. its terribly annoying and if none of you can see that try it yourself Steam [ and starwars pod racer are good examples] -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Maybe the mimetype declaration allows you to set a flag where to start the app. Konqueror runs Steam just fine, fwiw. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Still it is a problem how Wine is called, not how Wine deals with the path. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Wine provides winepath (http://wiki.winehq.org/winepath), which can convert between unix and windows file paths. Wine provides the correct windows implementation, which is what wine is intended to do. This is something that the file manager needs to implement. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

This is more related to distros' integrators then Wine itself. So if anyone wants to send such a script with appropriate changes to Makefile and "wine.desktop". -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
