Summary: command line path not translated to DOS format Product: Wine Version: 20020310 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: wine-dos AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.com ReportedBy: befletch@yahoo.com
Running a DOS program from the command line, i.e.:
wine -- ../prog.exe arg1 arg2
it would be helpful if the path to the executable (../prog.exe) was converted to DOS form (..\prog.exe) when it was passed in to the program as argv[0].
Having this path in UNIX form confused a program that was trying to find the path to its home dir. The work-around was easy, (specify a DOS path) but other WINE users may get bit by this as well.
