After loading Wine, how do you install a Windows program? It is not self evident from reading the introductory pages on the website. I've been holding off on trying this, because I didn't quite 'get' how you would install the Windows software... I'm a long time user of Photoshop by the way, but each time I delve into Gimp, and learn a bit more how to use it, I find less and less that I can't do with it, that I thought I must have Photoshop to do. -- Claude Jones Bluemont, VA, USA
