🚧 Note the last supported version for Wine is v1.2.4 🚧

Since this subject occasionally crops up, I've tested JScript Panel under WINE with Ubuntu and if you use the latest dev version of WINE, everything works without having to modify any script files.

These instructions assume you have a working portable install of foobar2000 which you can just copy over.

Install the dev version of WINE:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key
sudo apt-key add Release.key
sudo apt-add-repository https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-devel

Make sure all terminal windows are closed. Browse inside your HOME folder and enabled hidden files in the file manager. Edit .bashrc with the following as the last line of code:

export WINEARCH=win32

Open a new terminal and run:

winecfg

Then run the following:

sudo apt-get install cabextract
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks
chmod +x winetricks
sh winetricks gdiplus_winxp wsh57 fontsmooth=rgb msscript ie8

That should be it!

For scripts that require custom fonts, I found that copying fonts to drive_c\windows\fonts in the .wine folder didn't work but creating a .fonts folder inside your HOME directory works fine.
