           Summary: Dosbox integration doesn't work with PIF files
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.15
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: dos
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: spammis at spam.la


A PIF file is a shortcut to an MS-DOS program. Windows shortcuts to MS-DOS
programs get a .pif extension whereas Windows shortcuts to Windows programs get
a .lnk extension (or at least this was the case during the Windows 95 era: I
have very rarely used Windows since then).

When I type "wine dosprog.exe", Wine forwards the program to Dosbox.
When I type "wine dosprog.pif", Wine does not forward any program to Dosbox. I
get error messages about "Wineconsole", so it seems that Wine finds the EXE
file that the PIF file refers to but that Wine tries to run the EXE file under
Wine instead of Dosbox.
