Default linreaper problem on 64 bit

There is a bug in this script when installing on a 64 bit system. Wine installs Reaper into the (script created install dir)/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86) directory. However the script looks in the plain /Program Files/ which is for 64 bit and fails as the file don't exist. Giving the error:

Code:
a@a-laptop:~/reaper$ ./reaper.sh 
wine: cannot find 'C:\\Program Files\REAPER\Reaper.exe'
The script is rather complicated and does a lot of wine related stuff which I don't understand, so I'm unable to offer a patch at this time. However symlinking the REAPER directory in the plain Program Files directory fixed it for me.

Code:
cd (script created install dir)/.wine/drive_c/Program Files
ln -s ../Program\ Files\(x86\)/REAPER REAPER
Otherwise thanks for the awesome script, I can actually import media files now
