            Bug ID: 42399
           Summary: Implement Windows Script Host
           Product: Wine-gecko
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-gecko-unknown
          Assignee: jacek at codeweavers.com
          Reporter: kolan_n at mail.ru
      Distribution: ---

Wine has wscript.exe, cscript.exe and JScript.dll, but they seem to do nothing.
This prevents some software embedding WSH from working properly. The solution
can be some open-source JS engine like SpiderMonkey or v8 wrapped into a a
library providing WSH API. Probably you can reuse node.js which looks similar
to WSH in the sense it has API for network requests and FS manipulation.

Of course it is possible to install Microsoft's WSH, but it surely contain
vulnerabilities since it have not been updated for years and lacks modern JS
features.
