Hi!
you must type
Code:
wine file
where 'file' is a windows exe (you have to include the path if the directory isn't in the path environment variable: for instance 'wine /mnt/windows/whatyoulike.exe')
You should check the documentation: man wine, and the book about wine which comes with it.
However It is not easy make it work; you have to deal each program as a different problem, at least those programs which don't work immediately (for me using wine is like a kind of 'art' ), and keep in mind that wine is still alpha software, then is not 'perfect' and is not able to work for every program...
Good luck!
Regards

also there are different configurations that you can set up wine with. you can use an existing windows install (not recommended especially for ntfs filesystems since there maybe problems with programs wanting to write to said filesystems, writing to ntfs partitions is dangerous, and you need to configure permissions for those partitions so you and/or your users can have such access to the partitions) which i use (fat32 filesystem) or you can do the fake c drive thing (which is the recommended way of running wine). anyway you need to make some basic configurations.

1. check that you have a .wine directory in your user's home directory
2. see that you have a config file in that directory.

*if you don't have 1, you'll need to make one. use this command: mkdir $HOME/.wine
*if you don't have 2, below is the code for a brand spanking new config file. open a text editor and paste the contents in the code tags. save the file as "config" (no quotes) in .wine

Code:
WINE REGISTRY Version 2
;; All keys relative to \\Machine\\Software\\Wine\\Wine\\Config

;; If you think it is necessary to show others your complete config for a
;; bug report, filter out empty lines and comments with
;; grep -v "^;" ~/.wine/config | grep '.'
;;
;; MS-DOS drives configuration
;;
;; Each section has the following format:
;; [Drive X]
;; "Path"="xxx"       (Unix path for drive root)
;; "Type"="xxx"       (supported types are 'floppy', 'hd', 'cdrom' and 'network')
;; "Label"="xxx"      (drive label, at most 11 characters)
;; "Serial"="xxx"     (serial number, 8 characters hexadecimal number)
;; "Filesystem"="xxx" (supported types are 'msdos'/'dos'/'fat', 'win95'/'vfat', 'unix')
;;   This is the FS Wine is supposed to emulate on a certain
;;   directory structure.
;;   Recommended:
;;   - "win95" for ext2fs, VFAT and FAT32
;;   - "msdos" for FAT16 (ugly, upgrading to VFAT driver strongly recommended)
;;   DON'T use "unix" unless you intend to port programs using Winelib !

4. basically there's some changes you need to make. especially in the [Drive #] sections (the number is used for the windows drive letter - A, B, C, D, E, F, etc...). it's best to use the same paths as your mounted windows partitions, except for the c drive which will point to the fake c directory. *note if using ntfs, you don't want to write to those partitions, but you should still be able to use some files as long as you save them elsewhere where you can write to.

5. the only other thing i did for my config was set up the [FontDir]. basically most windows programs are used to using C:\windows\fonts so you may need to create the font directory in your fake windows folder. then from what i've read, you can copy the fonts in your real windows C partition over to the fake c\windows\fonts directory.

6. for programs to work, it's all on an individual basis. some programs will want to use native windows dlls, which you'll have to copy from your real windows partition over to the fake windows partitions. in the fake windows partition, you'll need to recreate same kind of directory structure as your real windows partition. plus you may have to do some extra things when installing windows programs. i can't really help you with that because 1, i'm not using this configuration, and 2 it depends on which windows programs you want to use. but i can give some links to resources.

http://frankscorner.org - this has a pretty comprehensive list of what programs work with wine and how to install and set those programs up. just remember though, that just because it's documented to work, doesn't mean it will work on your computer.

just use the newest one from the above ones its wine-20031016- then chose your version of redhat you are using, 1rh73winehq for red hat 7.3, 1rh8winehq for red hat 8.0,1rh9winehq for red hat 9.0 and after that your architecture most likely you may want to use the i686 version if you have a pentium II or above system ...

dont forget to create a fake windows folder in your wine config file, it'll be easier to run stuff like that but you'll need to get some dll's.

Alright, with Winex, when you install a proggy, it puts it into ths folder and actually installs it. Does Wine do the same thing? So I can install a proggy with Wine and run it like Winex? I would assume so, becuase Winex is just a variation of Wine, but not everything is how it appears in Linux.
