Re: command demands double quotes

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?

(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
one string. Try this.

wine "C:/Program Files/dynaterm8/dynaterm.exe" –connect:\"con1\"

or

wine C:/Program\ Files/dynaterm8/dynaterm.exe –connect:\"con1\"

both of those types work for me
