wisotool is a handy winetricks-like script for automatically installing games from .iso files copied from your own dvds (or, if the game is freely downloadable, it will download it). Just like winetricks, it is intended to make testing Wine easier, but might be useful for people who simply want to install games. Unlike winetricks, wisotool is quiet by default; it doesn't ask any questions (except it prompts for your password so it can mount the .iso file, and it prompts you to insert the disk if the .iso file is not found).
Wisotool currently supports about 145 games and/or benchmarks (see below). Please consider contributing support for your favorite game, it's not (too) hard. Thanks to everyone who contributed changes for this release.
Not all of these games currently work under wine. Workarounds for specific Wine bugs are applied if available.
Wisotool is available at http://kegel.com/wine/wisotool You can read more about it at http://wiki.winehq.org/wisotool Please report bugs via http://code.google.com/p/winezeug/issues/
