6 question

[Moreno]

Hi,

1) How can i use winemenubuilder?
it doesn't give any error.
i try:
# wine winemenubuilder "c:\Notes 5.lnk"
Where it set the menu?

2) I think to a new application to add to wine. This application help a
to trasfer application from windows to wine. I mean the main problem is
the key in the registry. If an application give u to select the
application and that application make a reg file with the kay take from
the registry for that application, it's more simple to trasfer that to a
wine.

3) I'm new, and i try to start to understand how wine work, but the main
problem is that i don't find something talk on that.

4) What can i use to read sgml?

5) there is a freeware game
http://www.steffengerlach.de/freeware/xo1.zip
that if i start like:
# wine d:\xo\xo.exe
don't work but if i start that from winefile work correctly. Why?

6) debug! i have an application that don't give any exception, or better
trap the exception. i need to a particolar point of the execution to
enter in a debuger how can i?

thx
Moreno

I am guessing the sgml files you are wanting to read are DocBook documentation.
So search for DocBook reader software.  I imagine there are plenty.

Maybe it is the missing second backslash between the directory and execuable names.
I prefer to change to the directory and run it from there, but that is me.

What error does it give?

You can change to the equivalent unix path and run it.  For instance, if the D drive
is set to /mnt/d, you could do this from a console:
  cd /mnt/d/xo
  wine xo.exe
I believe you could also run wineconsole and do this (I do not use wineconsole often):
  D:
  cd xo
  xo
By the way, your way *should* work, but I sometimes have better luck running from the
directory where the executable is located, which is what is done in both the examples
I gave.

It will call wineshelllink (as specified in the registry), with the 
information it extracts from the .lnk file it is pointed to.

wineshelllink does the actually creation of gnome/kde menu entries.

i search in filesystem if crate something like "notes" but nothing.

You will need to look at wineshelllink to find out how it is supposed to 
work.
