Is there a particular reason that users are the ones who have to add the escape sequences to Wine commands, instead of users typing a Windows-style argument and Wine parsing it into escaped sequences for itself?<br><br>(I want to know if it's a case of 'just because' or 'because no one has written a parser' or 'there is a requirement within Wine of <such and such>')

You were close. You can't put the arguments and the program exe all in<br>one string. Try this.<br><br>wine "C:/Program Files/dynaterm8/dynaterm.exe" �connect:\"con1\"<br><br>or<br><br>wine C:/Program\ Files/dynaterm8/dynaterm.exe �connect:\"con1\"
<br><br>both of those types work for me<br><br>On 5/28/07, John Evans <<a href="mailto:john.evans.m@googlemail.com">john.evans.m@googlemail.com</a>> wrote:<br>><br>><br>><br>><br>> I have an application called dynaterm which I can run successfully under
