That's my script to install free OCR software CuneiForm:

#!/bin/bash
if [ "$PLAYONLINUX" = "" ]
then
exit 0
fi
source "$PLAYONLINUX/lib/sources"

cfg_check

presentation "Cuneiform" "Cognitive Technologies" "http://www.cuneiform.ru" "Konstantin 'CHAIN' Vasilchenko" "Cuneiform" 1 5

# create temp, prefix, download installer, install software

rm $REPERTOIRE/tmp/Cuneiform/ -R

cd $REPERTOIRE/tmp/Cuneiform

# extract icons with icoutils package
cd $REPERTOIRE/wineprefix/Cuneiform/drive_c/Program\ Files/Cognitive/CuneiForm
wrestool -x --output=sface.ico -t14 sface.exe
convert sface.ico sface.xpm
cp sface-0.xpm $REPERTOIRE/icones/32/Cuneiform

# create launcher

Set_WineVersion_Assign "0.9.54" "Cuneiform"

# Apply Fix

echo "\"msvcrt\"=\"native,builtin\"" >> $REPERTOIRE/tmp/msvcrt.reg
regedit $REPERTOIRE/tmp/msvcrt.reg
rm -f $REPERTOIRE/tmp/msvcrt.reg
rm $REPERTOIRE/tmp/Cuneiform/ -R

simuler_reboot 5 5

# additional info
if [ "$POL_LANG" == "ru_RU.UTF-8" ]
then
attention "bla-bla-bla russian www.cuneiform.ru/forum/."

else

attention "Error in data sending when working with scanners HP, Epson, BENQ, Canon, Xerox, Mustek etc. Remedy: You have to edit face.ini, which is located in the directory windows. Then find TWAIN_TransferMode key in the file and make it equal to 'memory-native'. It's have to be 'TWAIN_TransferMode = memory-native' .

fi

exit


When I try to pass icon argument in 'creer_lanceur' function like

creer_lanceur "Cuneiform" "Program Files/Cognitive/CuneiForm/" "sface.exe" "Cuneiform" "Cuneiform"


or


creer_lanceur "Cuneiform" "Program Files/Cognitive/CuneiForm/" "sface.exe" "sface" "Cuneiform"


nothing happens with icon in POL, but WINE successfully add icons in its own menu.
So I need to use 'icoutils' package to create icons.
What am I doing wrong?

thank you

Hi

I think POL accept only .xpm or .png icons. To use these you have to add the following in your script :
convert xxx.ico $REPERTOIRE/icones/xxx.xpm
and then when you create the launcher, just use xxx.xpm as an icon

Not exactly Beberking, the script look for the icon in our website. So you have to give to Tinou or I the icon for us to upload it .
You can send it at this email : admin <at> playonlinux . com .
You can also post it on the forum using [ img ] [ / img ] (without spaces)

The balise [img] does not support xpm files.

You're right, I didn't read the sources before posting this... there is a :
wget $SITE/icones/$ICONE_ but I can assure you this works anyway (look at my script for Jazz Jackrabbit, the first one, the script is not yet accepted).

I guess it's not a problem if wget gives an error... and the rest of the "creer_lanceur" function creates the icon from the one you copy in $REPERTOIRE/icones

EDIT: maybe you'll say it's a bug in POL?

great thanx for answer
so I have an idea:
if wine can extract and convert icons from exe, may be it will be more convenient to use its possibility in POL? in standard script function?
i'll try to google for "howto extract icons using wine"
or may be use 'icoutils' package in POL dependencies?
