It should be like this: WINEPREFIX=wine2; wine myapp However, if you're going to run the wine app from a wrapper script, which is often more convenient for something that will be run a lot, this is probably better (everything between the start/end lines is the script: ================start of my script====================== #!/bin/bash export WINEPREFIX=wine2 cd $WINEPREFIX/path/to/the/exe wine myapp $* ================end of my script====================== Of course the script must be made executable: chmod u+x myscript The $* idiom passes all the script's command line arguments to the app, so you can run it as: myapp arg1 arg2 "arg3 is a String with spaces" Martin
