“Wineskin 2.0 has been released!

“Wineskin 2.0 wrappers are made from Wineskin Winery, which is
also being released in a 1.0 form today!

“Download Wineskin Winery, and it will handle downloading
updates, engines, and even let you use Wine source to make custom
engines, as well as creating Wineskin 2.0 wrappers!

“What is new in Wineskin 2.0? Way too much to write here.
Wineskin 2.0 is a total re-write from the 1.x branch. Every piece
of code has been re-written… no more bash and Applescript, its
all ObjC/Cocoa and C++. It is still LGPL Open Source licensed.

“Source will be available at the Sourceforge.net project
page

“Wineskin is shaping up to the the ultimate in customizability,
you aren’t stuck with a single Wine version per build, you can even
build your own from source easily! Its a great way for anyone to
turn a Windows app into a Mac App! Easy to use GUI tools, and real
fullscreen gaming with the new WS7 engines that have a custom
XQuartz X11 windowing system.”
