Run windows software in Ubuntu

Hey friends i have a cool tips today. I`m using Ubuntu but i can run all windows exe file in Ubuntu. Wanna know how? Okey I`m telling you.

Windows Software:

I love to chat with mIRC. You know mIRC is a windows based software. Now i`m telling you how can we use this mirc.exe in ubuntu.

.

WINE Software:

WINE is a software of Ubuntu. This software can open any exe files of windows. So, We have to install it in our Ubuntu first. Follow the steps for installing WINE software:

Step 1: You can install this software from your Synaptic Package Manager or in Terminal. I have installed the Wine software from Synaptic Package Manager. If you wish you can install this software from Terminal by using this command:

sudo apt-get install wine

Stpe 2: When WINE successfully installed in your Ubuntu, then copy the Windows Based Software program which you want to open with WINE in a suitable place in ubuntu. My Software name was mIRC. And I have copied this mIRC folder from D: drive of windows to /home/piku/Softwares32/mIRC/mIRC.exe location.

Step 3: Now I have used the following command to run mIRC.exe file in terminal:

cd home
cd piku
cd Softwares32
cd mIRC
wine mIRC.exe

Or you can use this single line command:

wine /home/piku/Softwares32/mIRC/mIRC.exe

Remember Directories are case censitive. If your directory name is mIRC, and you used cd mirc then it will not work. Use cd mIRC, for this.

Now enjoy with your windows based program..
