For the most part, everything works. You can click the menus (the big issue with it), and do everything else. It uses the newest version of wine out right now, and its actually really smooth on the install.

Some little caveats that I ran into was after the install, the first time that you run Reason 5, it will ask you for your registration code; you need to alt-tab or right-click its icon in your taskbar and select "move" to drag it out from behind the Reason logo. Its just hiding right behind it.

Also, after you enter your registration code, it wants to install the sound banks from the DVD. If it fails, it will crash without warning or error. Simply eject the disc and put it back in. It worked for me 3 times in a row.

If you get an error when trying to save your songs, then save them elsewhere, like somehwere in your home folder, OUTSIDE of the virtual drive.

I know, sounds like a lot. But they are very small showstoppers for this program. Im currently waiting on the wine build to finish and get uploaded, then this script should be good to go.

If anyone has suggestions to fix the issue with shortcuts like CTRL+C and whatnot for copy and paste not working, feel free to chime in. Im not sure where Wine would even be confused by that. haha

Actually, we may be able to change this to ALL versions of reason, as Im testing 6 and 7 right now, and so far its going well. Ill make the changes if needed, as Im still waiting on the wine build.

Scratch that last one. At least for now.

I also sent a pull request on github for the POL/Wine build with that patch. Im pretty sure I did it right. haha. It was my first one.

I added a note about the CD thing and the registration window to the end of the script. Hopefully that will clear up future confusion.

Also, here are the resources. Now we just need the Wine version to be built and we are good to go. :)

Probably not going to have the wine build until tomorrow. Still waiting for the pull request to go through. no too much longer, though. :D

Sweet. Its built, and installed on my computer. The script is up for all those who would like to test/run it. Enjoy! :)
