I have installed a program with wine. I want to add a file to the directory that wine has installed it. As I enter ~/.wine/device_c the ls command shws me:
Quote:
[sryzdn@localhost drive_c]$ pwd
/home/sryzdn/.wine/drive_c
[sryzdn@localhost drive_c]$ ls
EWB512 Program Files Program Files (x86) users windows
The program is in "Program Files (x86)" but I cannot enter this directory using the following command:
Quote:
cd Program\ Files\ (x86)
What is the correct command to enter this directory?
It's because of the space between Program & Files.
I was trying to copy a program there the other day & noticed the problem.
I thought about temporarily renaming.
Renaming with "rm" needs terminal to unedrstand "Program Files (x86)", am I right?
Is there any other way to rename the file?! (How can I enter ~/.wine other than through terminal?)
In debian I can rename by selecting properties in file manager.
Open Fm got wine, right-click on Program Files,select Properties & edit. Mine would look something like Program_Files.
