Well done. You have achieved something difficult to do on a PC blindfolded and wearing mittens! Could you post this on the steam forum as I think that's where most people will look for it.
I am terrible at writing scripts but I think I might have a go at automating the patching process for Linux on a PC, it's incredibly fiddly. I might take a look at how JSGME works while I'm at it as it is a task that could be done more flexibly with a script.
The problem with widescreen is that the Steam Deck has an odd native resolution of 1280 x 800. Although it can be set up to automatically scale applications to fit it seems that the directX wrappers in most widescreen mods are sneaking in under this scaling layer. I have a 1400 x 900 monitor that has a similar problem and it has so far resisted all my attempts to get it to run a 1366 x 768 GUI. I still have a go at it every now and then, but to be honest I would be better off just buying a less outdated monitor!
