<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Cheat Engine can be run on Linux through Steam using an environment variable when running commands in Proton.<br />
<br />
Using the <b>PROTON_REMOTE_DEBUG_CMD</b> environment variable you can call a program while starting your command in your programs Launch Options.<br />
<br />
For Example:<br />
<pre><br />
PROTON_REMOTE_DEBUG_CMD="/home/myusername/.steam/steam/steamapps/Cheat_Engine_7.5/cheatengine.exe" %command%<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Because of the way proton works, some considerations need to made when declaring a path to a cheat engine executable; Notably:<br />
<br />
<ul><br />
<li>Please be aware of Spaces and escapable characters, you have to provide (mostly) windows-safe paths when calling your application.</li><br />
<li>You must use an absolute path when calling this command.</li><br />
