Help with script

[Steve H]

I'm using WINE (1.1.9) to run The Many Faces Of Go (http://www.smart-games.com/manyfaces.html), and its running fine except for the graphics have a problem with transparency. Anyway I've found this script which says it will fix the problem, (but I don't know how to run it):

Anyone got any ideas how I'm supoosed to use this??

The website I found it on is here (http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.wine.devel/54403))
