Newbie question on what path
Hi, first off I am not a seasoned wine / linux user so I will start by apologizing if this is such a basic question. I have a chromebook using linux to run a couple of small exe microsoft programs. I am using wine 6.0. On one of the programs I am trying to change a gpx file to a ggz file to load in my garmin gpsr using the command feature. I can do it by a single gpx to ggz file but I want to use the wildcard function for multiple gpx files to 1 ggz file, but I don't know what path to send it to. The windows program says this,"You can use wildcards too! For example: C:\temp\*.gpx process all GPX files in c:\temp directory." So my question is what path do I use for the wildcard so it will find the gpx files in my linux files folder? I have read a lot on line and tried a lot of different things but couldn't get it to work. thanks for any help.

You can use the Z: drive for this.
For example, when the gpx files are in your Documents/gpx files folder, run:
For example, when the gpx files are in your Documents/gpx files folder, run:
Code: Select all
wine ggzgen.exe "Z:\\home\\$USER\\Documents\\gpx files\\*.gpx" "Z:\\home\\$USER\\Documents\\gpx files\\Wine-test.ggz"
