Can I execute a shell script from Wine ?

[BKirshte at kbtoys.com]

What I really want is - to trigger some Linux shell scripts, or PERL from
Lotus Notes script "shell" command.

      batchFile = "z:\usr\share\bin\test.bat"
      If Dir$(batchFile) <> "" Then
            taskId% = Shell(batchFile)
      Else
            Print batchFile & " not found."
      End If

(where test.bat has one line similar to this one - <perl_pgm_name>.pl

I've also tried  winefile (did not know it existed) - double click did not
do it though ...
What am I doing wrong here ?

Thanks.

That is why I wrote "from a windows program". Start winefile, double
click on the icon of a shellscript, works here. I launch Linux programs
from within Agent same way.

If that is not what you want, can you explain why you cannot execute the
Linux script directly?
