Opening pars in linux
In windows when you open a par it automatically checks the rars.
I'm having probems getting this to happen in Linux (kde).
Ive associated the par extension with wine and par like this
wine '/home/skynet/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/QuickPar/QuickPar.exe'
But all this does is open quickpar in the select files to protect mode.
Are there any commands or switches I can add to get it to check the rars?

Re: Opening pars in linux
You need to pass the name of the file that you clicked on to QuickPar.
The file association that gets created on Windows is:
"C:Program FilesQuickParQuickPar.exe" "%1"
So you need to use something that does the equivalent with wine.

Re: Opening pars in linux
on Linux/KDE3 it is:
[b:2679ip6m]setarch i386 wine "C:Program FilesQuickParQuickPar.exe" "%c"[/b:2679ip6m]
but it doesnt work.
All that happens is that QP opens and shows 2 lines;
[list:2679ip6m][*:2679ip6m]Recovery Files 0 recovery blocks[/*:m:2679ip6m]
[*:2679ip6m]Data Files 0 blocks found[/*:m:2679ip6m][/list:u:2679ip6m]
And the progress bar says 100%
I also tried some of the other %ids, [b:2679ip6m]%i %U %u %m %F %f [/b:2679ip6m]none of those works, they just opens the main program.

I suspect you have a problem with quote removal. Try the following:
[code:17grmh3e]setarch i386 wine "C:Program FilesQuickParQuickPar.exe" "%c"[/code:17grmh3e]

Re: Opening pars in linux
with "%c" it gives an error
"Service 'Wine/Programs/QuickPar/QuickPar.desktop' is malformatted."
When I click ok, it opens QP as decribed above.

[/quote:3uq1c1ic]
Is that the exact error (including the position of any spaces and punctuation)? What was the full name and location of the file you tried to open?
Try the following:
[code:3uq1c1ic]setarch i386 wine "C:Program FilesQuickParQuickPar.exe" ""%c""[/code:3uq1c1ic]

Re: Opening pars in linux
using [b:sgwnyn9b]setarch i386 wine "C:Program FilesQuickParQuickPar.exe" ""%c""[/b:sgwnyn9b] doesnt give the error [b:sgwnyn9b]Service 'Wine/Programs/QuickPar/QuickPar.desktop' is malformatted.[/b:sgwnyn9b] (thats the exact one) but it still opens QP with the two 0 block lines.
The folder that the PAR file is executed from is always:
/hd2/Upload/NewsBIN/<abbreviation of newsgroupname>/
/hd2/Upload/NewsBIN/<news.group.name>/
or in seperate subdirs as /foldername or /folder.name or /folder name
the filenames vary from upper/lower/mixed with and without spaces.
I have also tried in /hd2/Upload/filename.par2
My Wine version is 20041019 (Fedora Core 2 rpm)
and KDE version is 3.3.1-2.2

Re: Opening pars in linux
I can't think of any other permuations you could try.
I suggest you visit whatever web sites provide support for wine.
