Hello wildtruc,
Welcome, and i would like to have talk about wine wrapper.
Today i tried your winestarter: it is an ambicious project and have many features. Complicated but i truely admire your project.
You said we have very close project, yes and no. Yes we are all making wine wrappers. No we are walking towards different direction because i want to make this wrapper simple.
Why i want to make this wrapper simple?
1. It sould be simple
2. I myself lack programming skill
3. My stroy with PlayOnLinux, yes i was a loyal POL user
To your winestarter, i 'd like to provide some suggestion as user but i doubt i can not contribute to coding: it is complicated to me.

(Chines here, thanks to bing translator so i can write some english lines here.)

I understand your concern. I have very limited knowledge of the code myself and I spend my time on fixing my mistakes.
However, I am very open to your suggestions because despite all my efforts, I cannot think of all the possibilities.

I will try to integrate swbb into my project, because compilation from source is missing. I would also like to integrate an interface for winedbg, however my knowledge on this issue is very, very limited.

Anyway, thank you for your answer.

Feel free to use my resources.
About swbb: i created it solely for building wine-pba for Fallout 4, beware wine-pba is currently broken
https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=32863
On that Fallout 4 appdb page howto section: the bash setup script contain some useful functions, will not come to my swh, though.

Before using my swbb, i think you may be interested about a more high quality wine building script:
https://github.com/bobwya/build-multilib-wine

Here are some more feature you may consider:
FAudio:
https://github.com/FNA-XNA/FAudio
FAudio Build:
https://github.com/Kron4ek/FAudio-Builds

Beware about heavy maintence burden when you add too many features.

That's my thought.

Thanks for the advices. I will look in all this.

I always think to maintenance when I'm coding with in mind the goal to minimize, minimize, minimize. One of the reason why I fix a lot. :)
