Description, steps to reproduce:

Hi everyone, the name of my document have space in it, such as "hello world.docx", so that I cannot open with microsoft word 2010, the error dialog so that "hello", "world.docx" file not found. Could you give any recommend or suggestion, please? I install office 2010 with playonlinux. (I can open with file doesn't contain space in its name).

What version of PlayOnLinux?

Update by Hìr0 on 2012-07-24 20:15:33

It is really a bore the fact that I have to registered to be able to leave a comment. Any guest should be able to do that.

Anyway if I remeber well this is an old bug and still have low priority. Some year ago I gave up with PlayOnLinux just for this problem. It is a stupid bug fix but still exists and for those users that don't give a shit game but would like to use POL for other purposes it is annoying waiting release and release and see that this bug is still there.

However I don't want to seems polemical (I'm aware everything is done for passion and for free) but I would like that the developers will pay attention also at these "stupid" defects that sometimes make the entire project unusable.

For linux87 the workaround is easy (1day work for a newbie like me:-D):

you should modify the last line in all the files Microsoft contained in .PlayOnLinux/shortcuts

from:

POL_Wine X.EXE $@

to:

POL_Wine X.EXE "$@"

Hope it will solve your problem.

while mainwindow.py crashes if the file name contains special fonts like à

@ hiro

1 - Registration is compulsery to prevent people from spamming our bug tracker (and sometimes, we really think that we should discourage more people when we see reports)

2 - The quote problem has been fixed for a while (lib/scripts.lib, line 317)

echo "POL_Wine \"$Binaire\" $SpecialArg \"\$@\"" >> "$REPERTOIRE/shortcuts/$NOMICONE_"

. However, shortcuts made with a previous version can't be fixed automatically.

3 - For the special characters, we are trying to fix them as we can, but it's really a pain with python. If PlayOnLinux crashes, report a full bug (new ticket) with the exact steps to reproduce it. If we are able to reproduce a bug easily, you can be sure that it will be fixed on the week

4 - If you have problems, report bugs. Don't expect them to be fixed if you don't report anything

@Tinou: there's an issue with the arguments editor, that later remove those quotes.

Example of shortcut just after creation:

Terminal output:

$ cat ~/.PlayOnLinux/shortcuts/The\ Witcher\ 2:\ Assassins\ of\ Kings\ EE 
#!/bin/bash
[ "$PLAYONLINUX" = "" ] && exit 0
source "$PLAYONLINUX/lib/sources"
export WINEPREFIX="/home/petchema/.PlayOnLinux//wineprefix/TheWitcher2_gog"
export WINEDEBUG="-all"
#POL_Log=The Witcher 2 Enhanced Edition (GoG release)
cd "/home/petchema/.PlayOnLinux//wineprefix/TheWitcher2_gog/drive_c/./Program Files/GOG.com/The Witcher 2 Enhanced Edition/bin"
POL_Wine "witcher2.exe"  "$@"

After opening the Configure window on this shortcut, changing nothing manually:

Terminal output:

$ cat ~/.PlayOnLinux/shortcuts/The\ Witcher\ 2:\ Assassins\ of\ Kings\ EE
#!/bin/bash
[ "$PLAYONLINUX" = "" ] && exit 0
source "$PLAYONLINUX/lib/sources"
export WINEPREFIX="/home/petchema/.PlayOnLinux//wineprefix/TheWitcher2_gog"
export WINEDEBUG="-all"
#POL_Log=The Witcher 2 Enhanced Edition (GoG release)
cd "/home/petchema/.PlayOnLinux//wineprefix/TheWitcher2_gog/drive_c/./Program Files/GOG.com/The Witcher 2 Enhanced Edition/bin"
POL_Wine witcher2.exe $@

Dear Petch and Quentin,

Thanks for your reply (for the special character I will open another ticket). The version i'm using has already the bug fixed in script.lib. I'm using the ppa so I have the latest version.

The problem, as reported by petch is when configure menu is open.

I have modified the line 404 in playonlinux.py in python/lib as follow:

from:

new_string = new_string+" $@"

to:

new_string = new_string+' "$@"'

Seems to work fine but please let me know if this fix may cause some other problem.
