�� Installation

the installer scripts use a virtual drive of wine and makes a new winprefix for illustrator

first of all, you need to clone the repository with this command:

git clone https://github.com/Gictorbit/illustratorCClinux.git
cd illustratorCClinux
chmod +x setup.sh
./setup.sh

then you can easily run setup.sh script to install illustrator cc on your Linux distro

you can use -d to specify the installation path, and -c for the cache directory.for example:

cd scripts
chmod +x illustratorSetup.sh
./illustratorSetup.sh -d /mnt/storage/illustratorSetup.sh

or with c flag

./illustratorSetup.sh -d /mnt/myfiles/illustrator -c /mnt/cache

when no options are given, the installer script will use the default path,the uninstaller script and others will detect your custom path so there is no problem,I recommend using the -d option and having the default cache directoy

�� wineprefix Configuration

if you need to configure the wineprefix of illustrator you can use winecfg.sh script just run the command below

chmod +x winecfg.sh
./winecfg.sh

♨️ Uninstall

to uninstall illustrator you can use the uninstaller script with commands below

chmod +x uninstaller.sh
./uninstaller.sh
