Trouble finding the program in the wine folder

This may be or not be a dumb question. I can't seem to find the wine program that you use to help install the application. Sorry I'm 15 and trying to get a game I like to work.

You have to install wine in your operating system, e.g., on Ubuntu,
use: 'sudo apt-get install wine'.

But isn't that a Linux system? I use a Mac OS X leopard.

Then use Darwine (http://www.kronenberg.org/darwine/)

What version of Leopard? First, I recommend upgrading to 10.5.7.
Second, I recommend installing XQuartz 2.3.3.2 from the XQuartz
project. Then I recommend getting and installing Wine for MacOSX as
Austin English recommended. Version 1.1.20 is the latest that Mike has
provided, and my builds will not work on Tiger systems. I do NOT
recommend downloading Mike's Winehelper application, yet.

Once you get the download, it is a Mac OS X standard 'drag-n-drop' from
the distribution file into the Applications folder. The TRIX winetricks
front-end will help with the installation of several Microsoft packages,
such as the Corefonts font file distribution.

If you have further questions, please ask and one of us MacOSX users
will attempt to answer.

Which game are you trying to get running? Perhaps I could give you some specific advice.
