How do I get Wine to work?
I am trying to get Wine to work on my MacBook Air. I am new to Mac and am following the tutorial at http://www.davidbaumgold.com/tutorials/wine-mac/. I have done Parts 0,1,2, and 3 (so I have installed Wine with MacPorts already), but when I try to install a Windows program with the command "wine $INSTALLER.exe" (where $INSTALLER.exe is substituted with my application's name) I get the message "-bash: /Applications/Wine.app/Contents/Resources/bin/wine: No such file or directory". Please help.

Hi MacBookAir,
you need to change into the right directory where you have stored your installers. To do so, I would suggest you to do the following:
Since you've installed over MacPorts you can use the command 'wine' in every directory. So just type in wine into Terminal and grab the installer with the your mouse and drag'n'drop into the Terminal window. This way, you're going to make sure that the full path to the installer is given
Hope this will work out for you.

looks like you have some WineBottler stuff installed and its looking for that... you need to try to get it completely removed and reboot
