How would it solve that?
If you mean we should attempt to start the program directly using the
command-line from Linux instead of ShellExecute, I think this is a
very bad idea. We would suddenly have to worry about setting the
working directory correctly, replacing %1 and anything similar, not to
mention handling those actions that use some other method. We'd pretty
much have to rewrite ShellExecute on the Linux side.
