) = 0

Note sure why it is call xdg-email instead of passing directly to internet email
setting??
xdg-email gives a popup that says unable to detect mailto: URL??

See my response at

the existing one.)


Thanks for the information. 
Thought it was a significant difference in what I had 
found since I was under the assumtion that setting the 
option internet email would have it directly call that 
program rather than have it go thru some other process.

Saw the xdg-email at very end of the strace showing the 
issue. In later email saw that it was passing 

/usr/bin/xdg-email 
mailto:?subject=testemail&attach=file:///tmp/lu1757371x
dt6i.tmp/lu1757371xdt6m.tmp/testemail.odt

So it was creating subject using the basename of the file 
and creating a copy of the file under tmp.

Modified my WSENDTO script to
#!/bin/bash
/home/msetzerii/.wine/drive_c/PMAIL/Programs/WSENDT
O.EXE $(echo "$1" |sed 's_^.*file://__g')

and then replaced the xdg-email with link to WSENDTO 
and it was able to call the email client and load program 
as attachment. 

Noticed there is no senddoc.sh on my system in either the 
Fedora libreoffice or the 7.3.4.2 directories, but just 
senddoc. It does appear to be very similar to the contents 
of the xdg-email script.

My Macro to do mailto
Sub Mailto
Dim oDoc As Object
Dim Path$
oDoc = ThisComponent
Path$ = oDoc.getURL()
If oDoc.HasLocation() Then
shell("/home/msetzerii/.wine/drive_c/PMAIL/Programs/W
SENDTO.EXE " &mid(Path$,8,100) )
Else
  Print "The document has not yet been stored"
End If
End Sub 

Seems to work fine, and bypasses the senddoc and sends 
just the direct filename rather than creating a copy in the 
/tmp directory. The mid removes the FILE:// from the 
oDoc.getURL() value returned.

Had found an old macro someone had written long ago 
for Libreoffice 2 that no longer worked, and hadn't been 
updated for many years, and was just trying to find a 
solution that would work. 

Not something I do a lot, but interesting.

Thanks again for info.
