winecfg purely via terminal

Could not find the answer here, neither elsewhere.

Is there a way how to use and control winecfg via terminal only? winecfg always pops up a window, but I wish to set the preferences via terminal only (operating system and staging options).

The alternative for me would be a config file with preferences which I can edit.

Thanks for replies

From winecfg:

 Winecfg is a GUI configuration tool for Wine, designed to make life a little easier than editing the registry.

You can modify the registry by hand using your favorite editor. I don't know of any tools that work as gui inside the terminal for editing the wine registry. Wine stores registry under $WINEPREFIX/*.reg, probably in ~/.wine/*reg.
