Wine and Shortcuts

[ral]

Is there anyway to start a Windows up under Wine using a launcher/link to application/shortcut?

 

Thanks.

Are you asking if you can run windows apps (as in application, program, etc.) under wine in linux, or are you asking if you can load windows itself under wine? Oh wait - I think I get the question.

 

to start an app with wine, it takes at least one command line command with arguments, right? make yourself a script file to do it (ie let's say the command is this:

[static@hal static]$ wine -o danceajig /mnt/windows/Program Files/GTA3/gta3.exe -q lalala

then you can make a script that looks like this

[static@hal static]$ vi script.sh [enter]

i [to enter insert mode]



#/bin/bash

#script.sh by static



wine -o danceajig /mnt/windows/Program Files/GTA3/gta3.exe -q lalala



[esc] [to exit insert mode]

:wq [to Write changes and eXit]

Now make a shortcut to that script file with any icon you like!

Sorry for the typo. But thanks, I think thats exactly what I wanted to know. I'll try it now. :)
