For those of you who use winetricks and update it on a regular basis probably want an easier method to download it and place it where you want it. I made a script which will delete the previous version located in /usr/bin/winetricks and download the new one and put it in /usr/bin

Open your favorite text editor and paste in the following lines below and then save the file in /usr/local/bin/getwinetricks and sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/getwinetricks

#!/bin/bash
sudo rm /usr/bin/winetricks
cd ~/ && wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
chmod +x winetricks
sudo mv winetricks /usr/bin
echo Winetricks successfully installed.
winetricks –version

To run just make a link to your desktop or call winetricks from the terminal

> getwinetricks



Enjoy!

As always, you can grab the latest winetricks from
http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks
or by using the getwinetricks download script
getwinetricks script
