Installing Battle.net? #15

After encountering the known error of game porting toolkit 1.1 not being built, I found this project and successfully installed GPT 2.0.

Using the described method to install steam, I tried installing Blizzard's Battle.net launcher, which, at first, seems to work, but then quits with an error screen. From what I could gather from other instructions to install the launcher using GPT, a registry edit seems to be necessary. How would I do this in the terminal window that opens when launching GPT?

The commands all use the syntax brew --prefix game-porting-toolkit/bin/wine64` but that is from a regular terminal window. What would the correct syntax be for the way this project's GPT install works?

After installing the game-porting-toolkit following the GCenx method, you can start (in terminal) wine regedit which starts a replica of Windows' registry editor. No need to install additional brew wine.
