It only downloads the desired file. Installation would be done manually.

It's a script file. You can install/execute it by (Assuming you downloaded it in your Desktop):

-Change directory to your download location:

cd ~/Desktop
-Give the script an executable property:

chmod a+x winetricks
-Execute it

./winetricks
