Thread: Which is best way to start Wine (.exe files) ?


i copying application launchers , old computer had wine on it, new ubuntu desktop. problem: there @ least 4 different ways of launching wine program. can explain them me , tell me best way?

1. whole ton of stuff
code:
env wineprefix="/home/griffin/.wine" wine c:\windows\command\start.exe /unix /home/griffin/.wine/dosdevices/c:/windows/profiles/all\ users/start\ menu/programs/notepad++/notepad++.lnk
2. call program directly (and pass parameters if need be)
code:
/home/griffin/.wine/drive_c/apps/filesync/filesync.exe c:/apps/filesync/writings.fsy
3. run wine , pass program it
code:
/usr/bin/wine /home/griffin/.wine/drive_c/apps/du_meter/dumeter.exe
4. set special launcher script
code:
notepad
