## What it is
A fork of winetricks that adds setup wizards (verb files) for popular Chinese Windows applications like QQ, WeChat, TIM, and NetEase Cloud Music to run under Wine on Linux. It provides a terminal command and desktop launcher for installing these apps across distributions.

## Use cases
- install QQ or WeChat on Linux via Wine
- run Chinese Windows applications on a Linux distribution
- set up TIM or AliWangWang under Wine
- install NetEase Cloud Music or Kugou on Linux
- use winetricks with support for Chinese apps
- run Windows apps on Linux with a setup wizard

## When to choose
- you need to install Chinese Windows apps (QQ, WeChat, TIM, etc.) under Wine on Linux
- official winetricks lacks verbs for the Chinese applications you want
- you want a simple wizard-driven installer across Linux distributions

## When to avoid
- you need native Linux versions of apps that already have them (QQ, QQ Music)
- you don't use Wine or don't run Windows applications on Linux
- you need reliable video calls, screenshots, or password saving in QQ/TIM under Wine
