             Bug #: 31423
           Summary: Windows script host broken
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.5.10
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: jscript
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: djahma at gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


Windows script host is not found by software which provide a scripting
interface based on it.
AmiBroker is the software in question. It offers a scripting feature which rely
on WSH but AmiBroker doesn't find it on recent versions of wine, although
running scripts work when doing:
wine wscript myscript.js
I've tried various setups with Ubuntu 12.04 64bit and mint13 32bit and
playonlinux to install various wine versions (1.5, 1.4, 1.3 ,1.2, 1.1.30).
The strange thing is that AmiBroker could run jscripts when I was on Ubuntu
11.04 32bit and wine 1.2.2.
Each time, I installed vcrun6 wsh56 and wsh57, msxml3, MFC42, ie6.
I don't know how but I could see in the registry that jscript and vbscript are
registered...not sure that help.

Unfortunately, I'm not a hacker, I just write simple scripts and programs to
help me in my financial researches (render information directly on charts). A
lot of my code written for AmiBroker rely on this ability to call WSH from
within Amibroker. This means that a lot of my work would be lost unless a
Hacker finds a way to setup WSH properly in wine, or I return to windows.

All I can do is to offer my time to run the commands someone knowledgeable
would tell me to type. I've got AmiBroker, I've got some scripts to test, let
me know
