NAME

6       winetricks - manage virtual Windows environments using Wine
7

SYNOPSIS

9       winetricks [options] [verb ... ]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       winetricks is an easy way to work around common problems in Wine.
13
14       It  provides  simple  commands  to  tweak  Wine  settings, download and
15       install missing Windows DLLs and fonts, or  install  various  games  or
16       apps with appropriate workarounds for the current version of Wine.
17
18       It  can  be  used  via  GUI  or command line.  The command-line mode is
19       intended both for interactive use and as a building  block  in  fancier
20       Wine frontends and in automated regression testing.
21
22       winetricks with no arguments displays a GUI using either Zenity or Kdi‐
23       alog.

114

117              tory ( usually $HOME/.wine ).

120              If  set,  this  is  path  to  system's user data cache (default:
