    Installing programs in WINE?

    I need to install Adobe programs how do I do it? When I press configure wine do I select Dreamweaver.exe?

    He sounds serious. Better do what he says.

    nevermind hikaricore, he's just being a bit of a jerk - letmekilluplz's question is more basic than that. To install programs with Wine, you open them with Wine (right click the installer->open with Wine). You don't need to run the configure program under most situations.

    That's probably not going to work for dreamweaver, which is why he was pointed to a thread that will give him the answers he needs.

    Sorry but we've been getting a lot of vague threads lately where they don't bother to read the sticky and provide no info.
    Your thread should pretty much answer most basic questions and let the user know what they need to tell us in the first place.

    It does now - I realized from this post that it didn't have the answer to the first question in the Wine FAQ ("how do I run Wine?")
