[OT] new version of InstaMaker Windows /macOS Vine with support for x64 Installers

[matthias_livecode_150811 at m-r-d.de]

Hi again,

for those who might have downloaded the Wine version of InstaMaker and ran into an error saying that the app is damaged and should be moved into the Trash...

The DMG is okay, but due to the nature of the complete Wine file, which does not need Wine to be installed on your Mac, it is not notarized and some macOS versions come with this error message.

You could solve this by remove the quarantine attribut from the app.  To do this, open the Terminal.app and enter the following. 

sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /path/to/MyApp.app

Replace /path/to/MyApp.app with the complete path to the Wine app. The easiest way is to type online

sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine   and then drag the app from finder windows into the terminal window. This copies the complete path to the command line.

There will be some errors saying that some files were not readable. You can ignore that. 

After that you can open the app without any error message.

Btw. there is a newer version of InstaMaker available with some bug fixing and improvements. Thanks to Scott Morrow for testing and feedback.
