If you want to skip this step, you still need to install wineskin winery, but you can use the wineskin wrapped versions of Registax and AutoStakkert that I’ve prepared below. They are currently running without issue on OSX 10.10. Download Registax 6.1.0.8 packaged in Wine for OSX. Download AutoStakkert 2.3.0.21 packaged in Wine for OSX. Nov 28, 2020 Wineskin Winery is a porting tool to make Windows programs/games into Mac OS X apps. GUI building, made for ease of use and customization. Make Mac OS X ports/wrappers for Windows software Integrated Wine (upgradable/downgradable) Integrated X11 (Xquartz) Included installer, and easy configuration options Includes usable Winetricks as well.
The version of Wine we’ll be using is Wineskin Winery, which works out of the box with little to no complications. Wineskin wraps the windows application that you want to run in a package that can operate as a Mac application. So, Wineskin creates a wrapper for your Windows apps that can run in OS X.
Super Blue Blood Moon happened and everyone came to get these files and Dropbox has temporarily suspended my links. Oh no!
The instructions below for creating your own wineskin packages will still work. In the meantime I’ll work on getting my prebuilt wineskin package links back up.

Many pieces of software used for astronomy do not have equivalents that can be used by those of us running OSX on macintosh computers. I have made a few wineskin wrapped versions of the software that I am currently using and I have made them available here for you.
You must first download Wineskin Winery and install it.
You can then wrap Software such as Registax and AutoStakkert so that they will run almost seamlessly in OSX. If you want to skip this step, you still need to install wineskin winery, but you can use the wineskin wrapped versions of Registax and AutoStakkert that I’ve prepared below. They are currently running without issue on OSX 10.10.
Download Registax 6.1.0.8 packaged in Wine for OSX.
Download AutoStakkert 2.3.0.21 packaged in Wine for OSX. This wrapper has the windows ffmpeg executables already installed that will allow you to import .mov files without having to transcode them.
Enjoy!

Installing WineHQ packages
Official WineHQ packages of the development and stable branches are available for macOS 10.8 to 10.14 (Wine won't work on macOS Catalina 10.15). Please test these packages and report any bugs at http://bugs.winehq.org.
Prerequisites:
- XQuartz >= 2.7.7
- Gatekeeper must not be set to block unsigned packages.
Installing:
Both .pkg files and tarball archives are available at https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/macosx/download.html.
Installing from a .pkg file is recommended for inexperienced users.
To install from a .pkg file, double-click on the package, and the usual macOS installer wizard should open. The process should be self-explanatory. It is possible to install the package either for all users (needs administrator privileges), or just for your current user. After the installation is finished, you should find an entry 'Wine Staging' or 'Wine Devel' in your Launchpad. By clicking on it, a new Terminal window opens with a short introduction into some important wine commands. You can now directly start wine/winecfg/... from the Terminal, as the PATH variable is set correctly. For user convenience, the package also associates itself with all *.exe files, which means you can run windows executables just by double-clicking on them.
To install from a tarball archive, simply unpack it into any directory. There is no need to set DYLD_* environment variables; all paths are relative, so it should work as long as the directory structure is preserved (you can skip the /usr prefix though using --strip-components 1).
For more information, see https://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2015-December/110990.html and https://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2016-January/111010.html.
