Re: wineconsole exits immediately (Wine 20050310 debian sarge/testing)
[...] Install the wine-utils package. It is a suggested package for wine, but should be more recommended than suggested. Ok, thank you; it now works. Perhaps there could be a stub which informs users that wcmd is not avialable because wine-utils was not installed?

Perhaps there could be a stub which informs users that wcmd is not avialable because wine-utils was not installed? Well, not realy because it's a packaging bug and not a Wine bug. The rpms for the other distributions don't separate stuff out into a wine-utils package. bye michael -- Michael Stefaniuc Tel.: +49-711-96437-199 System Administration Fax.: +49-711-96437-111 Red Hat GmbHEmail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hauptstaetterstr. 58http://www.redhat.de/ D-70178 Stuttgart
wineconsole exits immediately (Wine 20050310 debian sarge/testing)
Hello, I was trying to run wcmd, it seems to have been renamed wineconsole. However, unfortunately it exits immediately before producing a DOS command prompt in my terminal like wcmd used to. I think this is a bug, (unless I missed something). $ wineconsole Invoking /usr/lib/wine/wine.bin wineconsole.exe ... Wine exited with a successful status $ I thought that maybe there was an argument I needed to pass, but there isn't a man page, or command line --help /? help unfortunately at present. $ wineconsole --help Invoking /usr/lib/wine/wine.bin wineconsole.exe --help ... err:wineconsole:WinMain Wrong command line options Wine exited with a successful status $ wineconsole /? Invoking /usr/lib/wine/wine.bin wineconsole.exe /? ... Wine exited with a successful status $ I am not on this list, please include my email address in any replies.

I forgot to mention. my terminal (KDE Konsole) is broken after running those commands and no appearance of wineconsole. man and other terminal applications do not display correctly, I have to clear the terminal or restart it to get it working again. When running other win32 software such as Call of Duty the terminal still works when I exit the game. I am not on this list, please include my email address in any replies.

If you want wcmd call it something like: wineconsole --backend=user wcmd bye michael -- Michael Stefaniuc Tel.: +49-711-96437-199 System Administration Fax.: +49-711-96437-111 Red Hat GmbHEmail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hauptstaetterstr. 58http://www.redhat.de/ D-70178 Stuttgart

Worksforme(TM). Seems your wine installation is broken/incomplete. I mean both methods work wcmd and wineconsole --backend=user wcmd. The later one runs a console which is fully compatible to that on Windows and some programs rely on that. And it has also the advantage that the wine debugging output (FIXME/ERR) don't clutter the output. bye michael -- Michael Stefaniuc Tel.: +49-711-96437-199 System Administration Fax.: +49-711-96437-111 Red Hat GmbHEmail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hauptstaetterstr. 58http://www.redhat.de/ D-70178 Stuttgart
