I did and here is the result:

gour at gaura-nitai ~ $ wine
Converted temp dir to new entry HKCU\Environment "TEMP" = L"t:\\"
Converted path dir to new entry HKCU\Environment "PATH" = L"c:\\windows;c

Converted system dir to new entry HKCU\Environment "winsysdir" = L"c
\\windows\\system"

However attempt to run some program results in: 

gour at gaura-nitai ~/mydata/hora $ wine jhora_l.exe

Getting WineTools to run would be a great benefit (for me) 'cause I need IE6
to test some web site, but running wt2 complains:

gour at gaura-nitai ~/mydata/hora $ wt2
FATAL! You don't have gettext.sh on your system.

Any idea?
