installing exe files with WINE using Console

[manuleka]

can anyone point me on commands for running/installing applications under WINE using BASH/Console?

I'm using Fedora 10

You get inside the directory where the .exe is located with the 'cd' command and put wine before it...

wine app_to_install.exe

To run, you'll need to get inside the directory where the actual executable is inside the .wine directory. As a "for instance," I run the old game "Trespasser" with wine so first I go to that directory:

cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/DreamWorks\ Interactive/Trespasser

Then:

wine trespass.exe

If this is your first time with wine, please know it is not a magic application that changes your Linux machine into Windows. Wine runs some Windows programs very well and others not at all. Mostly it runs them somewhere between these two extremes.
