I downloaded both wine and winetricks from Mac Ports, I have even installed some third party programs (Like Trix) and no luck. In wine and wine bottler the list is always empty! I have tried to install winetricks manually through the terminal as well.

Forgot a few things. You have to run winetricks  as the user logged
into the desktop not the administrator. Also it will not popup a GUI
if you feed it with parameters to execute.

I mean if you type (assuming you are in the folder winetricks is installed):

./winetricks corefonts


It will install the core fonts into your ~/.wine

or whatever wine prefix you have set using the WINEPREFIX environment variable.
