I hoped the example would be enough. It does what I think you asked for, put path(s) known under wine and convert it to the unix path(s). > > What I'm talking about for Agent in particular, is that when Agent as > a Windows program communicates with (for example) gimp as a unix > program and passes a command line parameter, like a file path (it > still thinks it's in C:\Data\agent rather than "~/data/agent", to > open, all of the back slashes should be changed to forward slashes. > > How would I use winepath in this situation? The command: winepath 'C:\Data\agent' will output: /home/yourself/data/agent Use that in a little script, call it perhaps winegimp, that calls gimp with the correct (unix) path. Something like: #!/bin/sh gimp `winepath "$@"` I use something similar to launch gvim on the patches on the mailing list. Rein. -- Rein Klazes [EMAIL PROTECTED]
