To get Finder to show hidden files and folders, you have to go into terminal and tell it to do so. Mac doesn't let you have more than one terminal open, so you'll have to backtrack a little and backspace off the "wine " to have a bare terminal to tell it to show hidden files and folders if you haven't yet already.

actually, you can open as many terminals as you want.  Th option is int he File menu, or you can use the shortcut keys Cmd+N for a new terminal window, or Cmd+T for a new Terminal tab.

Its also easy to see ~/.wine by just typing in Terminal, "open ~/.wine" and it will open up finder showing the contents of the folder, no matter if hidden files are visible or not.

many programs will fail to function if you start like that.

you are better of changing into the actual directory...

cd /Users/MIMIC/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Magic
wine workstation.exe

but maybe this specific program will not have a problem...

all this isn't important though if the person is using WineBottler, as the "wine" command will not even be recognized.
