Description
Q4Wine is a Qt GUI for Wine. It will help you manage wine prefixes and installed applications. It currently supported on Linux, FreeBSD and OS X platforms.
Q4Wine was initially written by Oleksii S. Malakhov aka John Brezerk. General idea comes from WineTools scripts which were initially written by Frank Hendriksen.
General features are:
- Can export Qt color theme into wine colors settings;
- Can easy work with different wine versions at same time;
- Easy creating, deleting and managing prefixes (WINEPREFIX);
- Easy controlling for wine process;
- Autostart icons support;
- Easy cd-image use;
- You can extract icons from PE files (.exe .dll);
- Easy backup and restore for managed prefixes;
- Winetriks support;
- And more: Explore it!;

After some experiments and tests. I decided to start using Weblate instead of pootle.
It provides flexible and simple git integration as well as github and google authentication via OAuth2.
Currently this new tool has been deployed and configured. It is available via i18n.brezblock.org.ua url;
Let me know if any issues.
Thanks.

Hello.
q4wine project was started about 8 years ago. It still continue to evolve from an simple 7-lines 'Hello World' application written just for fun in late 2008 :)
It was a long run. I am really impressed with OpenSource development model. Unfortunately, q4wine has a lot of design issues and limitations. It is really hard to support and add new features. To get rid of this, I am planning to rewrite it completely from scratch.
I do have some new ideas to try, but it will be nice to hear ideas, suggestions or comments from the end users.
So it's my call to you: if you have something to say I'm ready to listen.
Hello.
In order to organize and simplify translations process for q4wine I decided to setup Pootle localization tool.
Community localization server now available at: http://i18n.brezblock.org.ua/ Don't forget to check out our updated Translation hints.
Any suggestions or comments are welcome :)
