Those users are already accustomed to using winetricks, so I should probably make 'winetricks gecko' implement those steps. Sadly, that means it will have to use sudo, which is kind of ugly. I'm sad that this change happened; it makes things harder for me. I can't figure out why gecko is needed for, say, cmd. Why did you make that change? For now I've reverted the change locally until I implement the sudo-ized gecko verb. - Dan
