I'm new to Linux and Wine, so I need a little help. How do I run a program under Wine that performs an operation on a third file? IOW, I need to run the following DOS command line: C:\Program Files\Xprogram> mod.exe r64.dll How do I do this under Wine? I tried opening a terminal window and typing $ wine home\[restofpathname]\mod.exe r64.dll But I got an error saying it couldn't find mod.exe

Ah, thank you. So are you saying that the command I typed should work as long as I use quotes or double slashes? I just tried $ wine "home\[restofpathname]\mod.exe" r64.dll and it still says it can't find mod.exe. What am I doing wrong? I also tried using the double slashes, but it doesn't recognize two word directory names ("Program Files") using that method. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do in that case. Like I said, I'm a complete noob to Linux.
