How to install WinSCP on Wine in Linux, or other OS's that support Wine.

#### 1)  Download files to a local folder like /tmp/winscp_install:

* winscp.sh

* WinSCP.desktop

* WinSCP-Logo.png

* Note: This folder will need to r

* `cd` to this directory in a terminal window for the balance of steps

#### 2) Installation of WinSCP:

```

export WINEARCH=win64; export WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine_winscp

mkdir -p $WINEPREFIX/drive_c/apps/winscp

```

#### 3) Initialize WINEPREFIX `% winecfg`

Ensure Windows version is set to windows 7

(thats all)

#### 4) Deploy WinSCP files

* Download `Portable executables` version of WinSCP from https://winscp.net

  * CLI Trick to open in default file manager `% xdg-open $WINEPREFIX/drive_c/apps/winscp`

* Manually copy over files over to $WINEPREFIX/drive_c/apps/winscp

#### 5) *nix executable deployment:

```

sudo cp ./winscp.sh /usr/local/bin/winscp

sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/winscp

```

To verify, try running the following from commandline: `winscp`

* This should launch winscp GUI

#### 6) Desktop Installation:

```

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/icons && cp ./WinSCP-Logo.png ${HOME}/.local/share/icons/

desktop-file-install --dir=${HOME}/.local/share/applications ./WinSCP.desktop

```

That should be it, If you don't see the WinSCP key when you hit the Super key, toggle the Super key another time and that should do it
