Running Executables

[SourLemon]

I'm trying to run a .exe file, though I'm not sure if I'm doing it right. I'm right clicking the app I want to run, then trying to open it with Wine, but nothing pops up. Is this the right way? What do I need to do?

Often you can run an exe file this way. Unfortunately, sometimes something can go wrong. In this case, run the file from the command line.

I assumed that the MacBook equivalent of a command line was the Terminal app, so I typed up commands in there. It worked when I changed directory, but then it returned "zsh: command not found: wine" when I was trying to actually open the file. Is Terminal even the right place for this?

The Terminal app is the right place.
How you run the "wine" command depends on how Wine is installed. The WineHQ wiki has some tips.
