Many of you sent me a mail to help translating the website. That is why today, I built a file that contains all translations of the website.

But please know that, even if you help translate the website in your tongue, we can not guarantee to open a forum section and a news section. In fact, we also need moderators and newsers for that.

PlayOnLinux 3.7.3

Dom, 14/02/2010 - 19:13

Hi everybody !

PlayOnLinux 3.7.3 is now available !

What's new for the users ?- PlayOnLinux automatically extract icons during the installation process to use them in the main menu.
- A bug corrected preventing user from changing a program icon
- Few translations were corrected
- Definitive correction (we hope) of $PROGRAMFILES variable problem. Script are being rewritten.
- PlayOnLinux is now available in Greek (Thank you kapcom01)

A little bit more technical for the scriptors ...- POL_LoadVar_PROGRAMFILES was created to assign the name of Program Files directory to $PROGRAMFILES variable. In few case, when the directory was called "Program Files", the following commande returned %ProgramFiles% instead of the real name, and it was the cause of many bugs in all the scrpts.

Code PLAYONLINUX:

wine cmd /c echo "%ProgramFiles%"
- POL_LoadVar_PROGRAMFILES is automatically called on prefix creating. There is no need to use it in the scripts, we just need to erase old lines that cause bugs. To be sure that the scripts will be compatible with the old version, we started to replace

Code PLAYONLINUX:

PROGRAMFILES=`wine cmd /c echo "%ProgramFiles%" |tr -d '\015' | tr -d '\010'`
PROGRAMFILES=${PROGRAMFILES:3}
by :

Code PLAYONLINUX:

PROGRAMFILES="Program Files"
POL_LoadVar_PROGRAMFILES
- When you make a shortcut with POL_SetupWindow_make_shortcut, if the icon argument is empty, POL will try to extract the icon from the exe file and use it.

Enjoy !

Download

PS. A new version of PlayOnMac is also available, and compatible with Snow Leopard
