NAME

       winetricks - manage virtual windows environments using wine

SYNOPSIS

       winetricks [options] [verb ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       winetricks is an easy way to work around common problems in Wine.

       It  provides  simple commands to tweak Wine settings, download and install missing Windows
       DLLs and fonts, or install various games or apps  with  appropriate  workarounds  for  the
       current version of wine.

       It  can  be  used  via  gui  or  commandline.   The  commandline mode is intended both for
       interactive use and as a building  block  in  fancier  wine  frontends  and  in  automated
       regression testing.

       winetricks with no arguments displays a GUI using either Zenity or Kdialog.

OPTIONS

       --force
              Don't check whether packages were already installed

       --gui  Show gui diagnostics even when driven by commandline

       -k, --keep_isos
              Cache isos (allows later installation without disc)

              Don't delete temp directories (useful during debugging)

       --no-isolate
              Don't install each app or game in its own bottle

       -q, --unattended
              Don't ask any questions, just install automatically

       -r, --ddrescue
              Retry hard when caching scratched discs

       --showbroken
              Even show verbs that are currently broken in wine

       -v, --verbose
              Echo all commands as they are executed

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       WINEPREFIX
              If  set,  this  specifies  the  location  of  the default .wine directory ( usually
              $HOME/.wine ).

       XDG_CACHE_HOME
              If set, this is path to system's user data cache  (default:  $HOME/.cache)  W_CACHE
              path to Winetricks' user data cache (default: $XDG_CACHE_HOME/winetricks}
