Gentlefolk, I need to give someone the ability to create Windows-format text documents, which I can then copy (via SMB) to a W2000 machine for further processing. I've got the file-sharing up and running, and Wine installed and running Windows Notepad OK, but I've hit a snag trying to set it up to load Notepad automatically when the file-icon is clicked :- Environment - ubuntu 6.06, gnome 2.14.2, wine 0.9.17, notepad 5.0.2140.1 create a new text-file 'home/guest/Desktop/test.txt' select it in Gnome, and right-click for menu choose 'Open with other application' in 'Use custom command' enter 'wine notepad' notepad opens with error message :- ERROR file 'ome/guest/Desktop/test.txt' does not exist do you want to create a new file ? YES NO choosing 'YES' gives 'path does not exist' I can navigate to the file via 'File Open' and it opens OK. It looks as if 'open with other application' is failing to construct the command-line argument correctly (dropping the first character ?) - is this a known problem, or have I misunderstood the process here ?
