Is there a winbox alternative for linux?
For folks finding this and wanting an easy way to manage this, you can use https://github.com/mriza/winbox-installer. It will setup WINE for you if it's not installed, install Winbox, and setup an xdg-desktop compatible icon for you to launch via your DWM du jour. As always, check random code on source control before you execute it, so on and so forth.

I have a brand new Mac with Big Sur and Apple hardware (not intel). Is there any possible way for me to run wine on it? Thanks for any help
Ive tested upstream wine64 running under Rosetta2 and its not very useful outside of very specific niche use cases (see winbox-mac)
