Hmm, it's always good to have an alternative i think and the second
thing is that my script is a little bit simpler and is a general
cvs-update-script which is configured for wine. You can easily use it
for something else too. It's some  bash-exercise for me and... don't
you like it? it should be quite clean now and do, what 95% of all
native-wine-users do expect of a small script like this. Personally I
don't need profiles or something like this - that's why i wrote my own
script.

Ah, before i forget - there will be one more release with some improvements.
