Hello
I am very new to Wine and Linux. My question, is there tutorial for using
wine in the gui. I don't know how to use the command and all the tutorials
seem to be for command line users. Not to complain but I think the command line
is for people with more experience and that is great. But when I read the
ho-two's on installing a program it doesn't make scene, it all seems
like in your face don't you know kind of stuff. Well ya I don't know and
won't know because I don't know what your talking about, not much of a
tutorial. So I guess I either spend the next two years studing command line or
go back to something that has user friendly GUI's like windows. Can't
really complain though because this stuff is free.
Thanks for any information

It's not as hard as it looks, just give it a try ;-). -- -Austin

Command line will do exactly what the author intended to do in less space, less time, and better result. Would you prefer to see a 10-20 step instructions list starting from "Click on K-Menu button if you use KDE, or that button in the upper left corner if you use Ubuntu, or this image in the X corner if you happened to use Y." All distros are so different and even more customizable that no instructions will work in all cases. It's not your everyday windows with the "Start button"...
