wine users - Jul 2008 - Wine, The Bat questions

Hello, just started using Wine couple of weeks ago. Works fine, but I have a few
questions.

1. The account tree int he Bat displays folder icons incorrectly. The overlay
icons (that specify the folder type) are displayed, but the base one (is not).
Minor defect, I can live with it, but if there is a fix, I'd like to fix it.

2. Then I have pdf attachment in the email, I click on it, and the Bat askes
which program I want to use to open PDF. Is it possible to use a Linux PDF
viewer rather than install a Windows one?

3. Configuration of Wine drives always change after SLEEP-RESUME. Why is that? I
set my D to harddrive, but after resume it always changes to CDROM.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Slava

I managed to fix drives problem by manually creating sym-links in the
.wine/dosdevices

calling Linux PDF viewer is still messed up.

I created an intermidiate script:

Code:

#!/bin/sh
echo "$1" > /tmp/3.txt



which I select for opening PDF. What I see in the /tmp/3.txt is that path
parameter is completely messed up. Namely, the backslash that THE BAT inserts
into the path erases the following 3 characters. (I figured the \xxx is
substituted with a character which octal code is xxx)

Any suggestions how to handle that?
