if so,
instead run winecfg, if that loads up, then you will first see it
update your wine folder, followed by a panel for
winecfg on the screen. <---if this happens wine is installed.
You should also have a "wine section" in your applications menu.
Now, you are ready to install wine apps. You need to do that to
actually use wine.

do you mean to say, that you just installed wine, and then youI installed wine, but when I type wine in the console the command are not found! Please help me.

I runned ~/Program/wine/wine winecfg and get the config dialog, but I dont see any wine section it the applications menu, every program I installed with wine goes on Lost & Found.
What I want to do is to start a program by just typing wine myprogram.exe rather than have to tell where wine are like ~/Program/wine/wine.

Do you mean the terminal? If so, you should see a response. If you areI installed wine, but when I type wine in the console the command are not found! Please help me.

hi CheatCat,
doesn't actually exit, so if that is what you are running, that might
be the problem.
- what happens if you double-click on an .exe file?
- open a terminal type "wineserver -p", then opn a task manager, and
see if wineservfer is running... (is it???)
- do you have wine in your applications menu?
- What Distro of linux are you using?
- What version on Wine are you using?
this would all be helpful for us to know.
It is possible to have your wine program start just by typing the app
name from the console. It would involve using possibly, some shell
scripts in a directory, add that directory to your PATH. then your
scripts could execute wine/settings/and finally the app. by doing
this you could end up with being able to start a program, by any name
you gave the script.
You'll need to read up on writing shell script, though.

What I want to do is to start a program by just typing wine myprogram.exe but it don't run..can i forget edit it. but after i will run the wine command still..
Distro: Arch Linux (Dunno what version), I have also tried Gentoo an that is same problem there.
I installed by downloading the source and compile it with wineinstall.
The version I use is 1.3.0, I have tried different versions and I doesn't work with them either.
When I said console I mean the terminal.
~/Program/wine/wine exists that is there I have install wine.
If I doubleclick on a exe file it run on wine since I tell it to open exe files with ~/Program/wine/wine.
If I type wineserver -p the command are not found. It is running when I look in System Monitor.
I don't have wine in the app menu.
So I need a shell script? I think I know how to do a shell script. Should I made a shell script for every program I wanna run?

Now you have a script you can run it from the command line or use it as
the command run by a launcher - this is a lot easier than trying to put
the WINEPREFIX setting, the cd and the wine command into the launcher's
command line.
Without all my explanatory comments a typical wrapper script is only
three or four lines.

if you installed it to ~/Program/wine then you need to add that to your path for it to find the commands just typing them in... it doesn't know to look in there. you can also cd into that folder and use like ./wine and ./wineserver -p or whatever... with the ./ telling it to look for the command in the current folder.CheatCat wrote:Distro: Arch Linux (Dunno what version), I have also tried Gentoo an that is same problem there.
