wysiwyg web builder versions 5 and 6 are both listed as "garbage" in the Wine appdb (link at top of page) ... this means that so far no one has gotten them to operate in a usable way using Wine.

As for compiling and using Wine on Mac OS X, it can be complicated and even if you use something easier like Macports to actually compile and install, it still is all command line....

If you want a more Mac-i-fied (and better) solution to running normal Wine, look into buying Crossover Mac and/or Crossover Games (www.codeweavers.com).  It uses Wine, and is a whole front end with support, all GUI and everything.  I say that Crossover for Mac is better than Wine for Mac simply because Codeweavers makes their own integrated X11 server into Crossover and doesn't use the Apple X11.app.   Codeweaver's X11 works MUCH MUCH better for Wine, as X11.app (Xquartz) is very lacking.
