how to make a shortcut file in WINE
 

I am just new to Linux using Fedora Core 4

i have WINE 20050930, i have a working warcraft III

when i want to run my warcraft i just type in the terminal:

$ cd "c/Program Files/Warcraft III"
$ wine w3l.exe -opengl

then my warcraft is running smoothly...
note: i am using a w3l.exe to enter into PVPGN battlenet :D

but do I have to type those command in terminal everytime i have to use my Warcraft??

I try to make a launcher in my desktop, type is application and put this in command box:

wine 'home/user/c/Program Files/Warcraft III/w3l.exe' -opengl

and is has an error says:

cannot start war3.exe make sure the loader is in the same dir

:cry:

the web site said that i have to make a script to do this...but i dont know how...


Your help is much appriciated, Thanks you...

you type on your console and try that it is valid...

if this command is ok, you can write " war3 " on your console. It has to be worked on...

But you must write in every boot. To avoid this ,

You add this entry to .bashrc ,

Command is like:

and a texteditor will open a script.. You have to add only this code at the bottom of the script:

alias war3='cd "c/Program Files/Warcraft III" && wine w3l.exe -opengl'

wow thats great but how about a launcher in my desktop so I just click it and my warcraft will work :rolleyes:


Thank you for your reply :D

Re: how to make a shortcut file in WINE
 

Just edit your shortcut, so instead of current

it points to:

I just did what you say and an error message pop-up says:

There was error launching the application
Details: Failed to execute child process "cd" (No such file or directory)

:(

i just put the command on the launcher command box...

I think I just did something wrong....

im soooo :newbie:
