Summary: Missing support for "echo" command and other dosbox builtins Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-console AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.com ReportedBy: david_en_clarina@zonnet.nl
I'm using a WIN32 IDE which is using a makefile containing some "echo" commands. However running this IDE on top of wine, I noticed that "echo" wasn't found as a builtin command by wine, although it is a builtin for win32 dosboxes.
It shouldn't require much effort to add it to wine. I'd prefer to see it being builtin into wine (consol) itself (thus not requiring a "echo.exe" somewhere in my wine PATH). Of course a "so" solution is OK as well.
I don't know all the "builtin" commands for win32, but probably there are more builtins that can be added to wine just as easily as "echo". I wouldn't know which though...
To reproduce: -- Box:~$ wine -- echo "hi" /usr/bin/wine.bin: cannot find 'echo' Wine failed with return code 2 Box:~$ --
