how do I add a program to wine? Wine comes with Notepad and that works
well but how do I install the e-Sword.exe I want to use? I also saw a
iexplore.exe - can I use Internet explorer in Ubuntu Linux and if so, how
do I do that? Thanks much for any help ...

Add it the same way you'd add it to a Windows installation: Put thehow do I add a program to wine?

With IE - no you can't run it as-is on Wine. If your really have to have it - look at ies4linux.

Try running it. You won't see any text in the
"tip of the day" or in the lower pane. To
work around this problem in Wine, copy and
paste these commands into a terminal window
(careful, it's dangerous to trust strangers, but you
can trust me :
wget http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks
chmod +x winetricks
./winetricks riched20 msls31
This will install Microsoft Reader and then copy a needed native
dll from it. After you do this, e-Sword should work properly.
Let me know what happens.
That page also mentions that there's a native Linux alternative,
http://gnomesword.sourceforge.net/
which you might want to look at.
Good luck,

You can, but it's an incredably bad idea unless a program you use absolutelyI also saw a iexplore.exe - can I use Internet explorer in Ubuntu Linux and
if so, how do I do that?

There is NO Mac version available as MacSword is for a completely

Thank you for the update Dan. Is there a HowTo for this Application?
If not, I will create one.

NOOB
I am a complete noob to the WINE. I want to install from an ISO. How do I do it? I want to be able to mount an ISO so a program can access it when it needs program data, how do I do it?
