Well, I like to establish that on principle, help may be offered on
the issue at hand!
I got Wine from http://winebottler.kronenberg.org
I didn't know that it matters where I got it from; I thought that Wine
is Wine. Period. Obviously not the case.
The program is a demo for a Windows utility for engineers in Greece to
calculate their fees for designing building projects (i.e. homes/
offices etc.) according to the fees laws in the country. Doubt whether
anyone has even imagined there is such a thing outside Greece. It can
be downloaded from here (after you provide any kind of gibberish in
the 'Name' and 'email' fields, click on 'Download' on the right): http://www.insoft.gr/downloads.htm
. You end up with a file called "amo683-setup.exe" which is the
executable for the Fees Calculation installer on Windows.
Trouble is that under some Wine implementation on my Leopard OS X
10.5.7 Mac all greek text within the InSoft program look garbled; some
env parameter of the Wine setup, I'm guessing. Mind you, I don't know
the first thing about Wine.
Thanks, and apologies for the newbiness. Hope to get rid of it soon.

Any tips for a complete newbie? Nothing seems to happen when I run
Wine, other than the little half-full (or is it half-empty?) glass on
the menu bar.
Nice disclaimer. Worthless but nice...
You did not mention where you got Wine from nor the program name, so
attempting to provide assistance may prove futile. However, you can
try
looking in the Applications Database for assistance for the program.
For assistance installing and setting up Wine please read the FAQ and
the MacOSX specific web page.
