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.
