I want to give you the updates :
According to uour advice, it didn't work because I didnot use the windows way
to describe a path. actually it seems it is only important to provide a drive
letter. Direct or backslash is not important.
Then, I modified the script to get :
#!/bin/sh
#
if [ -z "$1" ]; then
xmessage usage: $0 /unix/path/to/file
exit
fi
export LANG=fr_FR
exec wine -- /mnt/disk/wsysteme/applis/msoffice/office/excel.exe z:$1
## eof
This script is only supposed to be used with a complete path to file from the
root FS(/).
But excel still tells me it cannot get the file !!! I know it got a complete
argument (path and file) since when I introduce a mistake, it shows me the
complete path with the mistake inside. Moreover, a quick ps shows the
following ps is active :
/usr/bin/wine-pthread -- /mnt/disk/wsysteme/applis/msoffice/office/excel.exe
z:/home/chirstophe27/wnotes/data/perso/contacts11.xls
Any clue ?
Could you just try to lauch a windows application with wine, introducing an
argument ? Does it work for you ?
(something like : wine /mnt/disk/wsysteme/applis/msoffice/office/excel.exe
z:/home/chirstophe27/wnotes/data/perso/contacts11.xls).
And my question would be : if it works for you, do you have an idea why it
does not work for me ?
Thanks
christophe
