Problem running Filezilla through Wine

    I use Ubuntu and just installed Filezilla using Wine.

    It works grand, but when I try and use the view/edit option, the program tries to use the windows "temp" folder rather than the Wine "temp" folder. I already have Open Office Writer set as the editing program, so that end is ok.

    Anybody know what I need to do to make it use a folder other than C:\windows\temp?

    You have to specify the program you wish to use for viewing and/or editing code in Filezilla. Use the full path in the location box.

    If you want an FTP program native to Linux, I'd recommend GFTP.

    Firstly, i don't see why you would be emulating FileZilla inside of Wine when you can just install the linux version of wine.
    sudo apt-get install filezilla

    That was still in testing the last time I checked since it was only recently ported to Linux.
