It is time for a new q4wine release tagged as version 0.114, this new release includes new Italian translation and translations updates for Spanish, Ukrainian and Portuguese (Brazil) locales.

I'd like to introduce at this time the new Wine Registry read\write engine, which allows reading existing Wine configuration keys during the Fake Drive update process. Also I added some more wine configuration options in the Fake Drive Wizard dialog.

General features are:

Can export QT color theme into wine colors settings.
Can easy work with different wine versions at same time;
Easy creating, deleting and managing prefixes (WINEPREFIX);
Easy controlling for wine process;
Easy installer wizard for wine applications; (Not yet. Wait for v. 0.120)
Autostart icons support;
Easy cd-image use;
You can extract icons from PE files (.exe .dll);
Easy backup and restore for managed prefixes.
Winetricks support.
And more..

New features avalible in the 0.114 release are:
