Summary: Impossible to pass a parameter from a linux program to
a windos program
Product: Wine
Version: 1.1.17
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Windows XP
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: -unknown
AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
ReportedBy: jujuland.46 at wanadoo.fr
I'm using K-Meleon web browser 1.5.x (2 or 3) and I have made it as default
program for Ubuntu.
I have made a tool to correct link file path from windows to linux to open the
files with linux programs instead of windows programs, and it works great.
I have also made an utility to correct the linux file path, and it works great
too. When I click on an html file (for example), the linux path is transformed
into windows format, and K-Meleon is able to open it.
For now, I'm not unable (for example) to do the same when I click on a link in
a mail opened with Thunderbird (linux version)
The default browsing program has been set to "/opt/Program
Files/K-Meleon/k-meleon.exe" %U I think it's a normal string to allow to pass a
parameter, but when I execute it, K-Meleon opens and try to open %U, and
obviously fails.
In fact, wine doesn't replace %U with the content of the parameter.
Some guys said on forum, that it's not possible, but I don't know why it
wouldn't be possible.
Could it be a feature that had be missed ? I can't believe it ...
Thanks
