Summary: QuarkXPress version 8.x hangs on start (missing double
quoting of browser path in
HKCR\htmlfile\shell\open\command)
Product: Wine
Version: 1.3.1
Platform: x86
URL: http://downloads.quark.com/Details.aspx?fid=163&&mid=2
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: -unknown

Hello,
someone in appdb reported QuarkXPress version 8.x (2010 version) hangs on
start.
Downloaded a 60-day trial ... it does indeed - due to a Wine shortcoming and an
application bug. ;-)
Basically the app retrieves default browser setting from registry and does some
parsing to extract browser (unquoting and splitting '\' '/' path delimiter).
Their parsing is broken in a way that it can't cope with missing double quotes
around browser path leading to endless looping.
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\htmlfile\shell\open\command ->
C:\windows\system32\winebrowser.exe -nohome
With the browser path in double quotes, QuarkXPress 8 starts fine.
"C:\windows\system32\winebrowser.exe" -nohome
The quoting is most likely present in Windows as the app would loop there too
without.
Regards
