Summary

Bug reports go faster when people can attach their logs. Right-clicking a prefix now has an Open Log submenu. Each item opens the file in Console.

 Prefix context menu (one prefix selected)
   Run Program…
   Wine Configuration / Registry Editor / Task Manager
   Reveal in Finder
+  Open Log ›
+    Launch Log   <prefix>/notproton-run.log
+    Wine Log     ~/Library/Application Support/notproton/launchers/<appid>/notproton-wine.log
   Back Up Prefix / Rebuild Prefix / Delete Prefix

An item is greyed out when its file doesn't exist yet.

Evidence

  • Before: no way to reach the logs from the app. You had to dig through compatdata or Application Support in Finder.
    After: Zuma Deluxe with its Wine log moved away, so only Launch Log is enabled:

    Open Log submenu with Wine Log greyed out

    With both files present, both items open in Console.

  • PrefixToolsTests has a new test, "Log paths match where compat_run.sh writes them". It reads compat_run.sh and fails if the script ever moves either log. Prefix suites: 84 passed.

Merge Danger

Door: two-way

Read-only. It opens existing files and never writes to them.

Blast Radius: tiny

One new submenu in the prefix context menu.
