what is wine

[Jim Rosser]

Since your on the Ubuntu mailing list i am going to assume you are using
Ubuntu.  To install wine open up a terminal and type in sudo apt-get install
wine, or you can use synaptic, search for wine and install it from there.
There are alot of programs you can install with wine but some take more work
than others, for a good list go to: http://appdb.winehq.org/
