    Some help on some commands

    #/bin/sh
    cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Microsoft\ Office/Office
    wine winword.exe

    I have get the above links from the franks corner for the wine installation. I need some help on what the above commands mean.

    Is it creating a softlink to a file?

    Thanks

    I'm no script guru, but I think it might be:
    Code:
    #/bin/sh
    
    cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Microsoft\ Office/Office &&
    wine winword.exe
    It's making a simple script to start the prog which you'd make with your favourite editor. For instance, if you use the kate editor....
    Code:
    kate nameoffile
    When it opens, place the above "code" into the page, save and exit. I'd try from the command line:
    Code:
    cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Microsoft\ Office/Office && wine winword.exe
    first to see if it works first.
