Error on Windows when editing launch entries. #31

Closed nl255 closed 1 year ago

nl255 commented 1 year ago

When I run steam metadata editor on Windows (haven't tried it on the deck yet) everything seems to work fine but when editing an entry I get this error message.

Exception in Tkinter callback Traceback (most recent call last): File "e:\python\python392\lib\tkinter\__init__.py", line 1892, in __call__ return self.func(*args) File "L:\z.gamesavebackup\0-steam-metadata-editor\gui\main_window.py", line 940, in <lambda> command=lambda: self.generate_launch_option_string( File "L:\z.gamesavebackup\0-steam-metadata-editor\gui\main_window.py", line 851, in generate_launch_option_string wkngDirVar = wkngDirVar.replace("/", "\\") AttributeError: 'StringVar' object has no attribute 'replace'

There was a problem with the backslashes. I just pushed a commit that should fix the issue, please try it.

It seems to be working fine now on Windows, still need to see if it does the right thing on the Steam Deck (since while it runs Linux most of the games are for Windows and thus using Windows executable launch entries).

The problem was with the way Windows handles paths, which uses backslashes, and the way Linux handles them, which is with forward slashes. It has nothing to do with the platform of each particular game, it should work just fine.

I'll be closing this now.
