wine : command not found

[Mikkel Mastrup]

I downloaded this file 
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/ALPHA/wine/development/Wine-20010510.tar.gz 
(it's the source code). Then I unpacked it as root and then I went into the 
"/root/wine-20010510"-directory. Then I typed ./tools/wineinstall (or 
something like that). And then it startet installing. When it was finished i 
edited my ~/.wine/config so that it would not automaticly start with the 
"--desktop 640x480"-mode turned on.

Then I tried to start my favorite app by pressing "wine favoriteapp.exe" and 
it said. "Command not found". Hmm... Then I went into the 
"wine-20010510"-folder. From there I typed "./wine /root/favoriteapp.exe". I 
don't remeber what i said but something was wrong with WINE so i didn't 
work. I also tried "./wine --desktop 800x600 /root/favoriteapp.exe" and it 
just said something about the "--desktop"-command didn't exist. I've tried 
the Wine that followed with Mandrake 8.0 (that's the distribution I use 
right now) and CodeWeavers WINE. Both of them started the favoriteapp.exe 
just perfect. What has gone so terribly wrong?
