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 in-
       stall missing Windows DLLs and fonts, or	install	 various  applications
       with appropriate	workarounds for	the current version of Wine.

       It  can	be used	via GUI	or command line.  The command-line mode	is in-
       tended 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 Kdi-
       alog.
