Type xterm -help for a full description.

xterm seemingly isn't accepting the -e parameter for some reason.

Could you try installing either GNOME Terminal (gnome-terminal) or Konsole (konsole) and trying again?

[Jark5455]

Hey, sorry for the late response, konsole returns Missing value after -e when I try running it in that

[Matoking]

Are you running Winetricks 20230212? There seems to be a regression in that version which appeared after the "Run a Wine cmd shell" verb was added. Reverting to an older version should fix it, or alternatively you could use protontricks -c bash <appid>, which does roughly the same thing.

[Jark5455]

Yea I am, ill revert to an old version

[Matoking]

An upstream bug fix has been submitted at Winetricks/winetricks#2037

[Jark5455]

oh sorry, I forgot to close the issue
