wine command not found & .wine missing problems

[snuffysam]

I'm pretty new to wine, and a tutorial I found says to edit the user.reg file found in my .wine folder.

Except my computer has no .wine folder. Most help sites I've found say that the .wine folder isn't created until something is run with wine.

Running "wine winecfg" in the Terminal returns the error "-bash: wine: command not found". Most help sites I've found say that this is caused when wine is not installed properly, and that I have to point wine to the correct location by running "which wine", followed by "echo $PATH", with $PATH being the location that wine lives.

But "the location that wine lives" can only be referring to the missing .wine folder, correct? So how do I point wine to a folder that isn't created until I run wine? Am I going about this all wrong?

No.

No.

So then where would brew have installed it? And what folder should I put it in when I find it? Nowhere else seems to mention this information.

That's a question to ask on the Homebrew forum.
