I've never used wine so can't help at all with configuring it but for simply installing it under Slackware you can find a package built for it at http://www.linuxpackages.net then use pkgtool to install it.
Hey
The package tool worked GREAT! But I am comming with error messages about .reg nonsense and event handler stuff. Whats going on here?

If wine won't work you could download the source from www.winehq.org and install it using wineinstall script, it is located in <dir_where_you_unpacked_source>/tools/wineinstall
or compile it:
./configure
make depend
make
checkinstall - as root, if you want to create an wine-xxx.tgz file, or just make install , also as root
Also, there is a lot of documentation os www.winehq.org
Good luck!
I managed to get it running, but I can not run newer apps only the dos based executables. Oh well, Its running on a junk machine, its not much of a loss. :rolleyes: Thanks for all you guys help though!:D
