The installation should be straight forward, take a look to winehq.com to get some ideas about wine and nice howtos.
Try to find a binary package for your distro.
Be aware that not all programs work with wine as a lot of noobs think. And If so they may not work as expected. Sometime some features don't work.
Some others programs may need you to tweak some wine settings.
