Rick:

Look at item 3.2 in the Wine FAQ.  It should be available through the
following URL:

http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-f3515230c198befe0279d32c448d9c8da63be66f

There is also a link to the Ubuntu FAQ on how to use the terminal
program from Linux.  If you are using a Mac, click on the Hard Drive
Icon in Finder -> Click on Applications -> Navigate to Utilities ->
Click on Terminal.
