Description: simple tool to work around common problems in Wine
Winetricks lets you install missing DLLs or tweak various Wine settings
individually. It also has a menu of supported games/apps for which it
can do all the workarounds automatically.
.
It can be used via GUI or commandline, whichever you prefer; the
commandline mode is particularly useful as a building block in fancier
wine frontends and in automated regression testing.
