It really should be on your disks but, if not, there ya go. Look there for most any software you need. Search Google Linux if you need anything that isn't there.

Um.

1. http://freshmeat.net/projects/wine/?topic_id=809%2C74

2. "Bison is a parser generator in the style of yacc(1). It should be upwardly compatible with input files designed for yacc."

In Linux, it helps to be a go-getter and do your homework. Hell, *I* get slammed for not being enough of a search-junkie. Check the Linux Documentation Project for a Wine HOW-TO if it's not already in /usr/doc on your machine.
