This is the current development branch of Wine. The name is a bit misleading as it is superior to the stable build in most aspects. If your program is laking some functionality under wine, this is the version to go with, as it is evolving very fast. Check back often to download the most recent version. One of the big news is, that it does not need X11 anymore.
The current stable branch of Wine. It is usually very static and only receiving very few updates. If your program runs with it, it is a great way of having a solid base to use your apps on.
This is the last 'complete' version of Wine for OS X Tiger. You can use this version of WineBottler together with the 1.4.0 and the 1.4.1 No-Audio-Build on OS X Tiger (see below). Wine is no longer actively developed for OS X Tiger.
Run your Windows based Programs on your Mac with these vanilla Wine Builds. They are compiled from the sources of winehq.org and they come as a neat .app with my custom starter. For more info on how these Wine.app Builds are generated, have a look at the Tech Specs. If you need something more powerful, try WineBottler.

Wine (Windows Emulator) is a free and open-source application that aims to allow programs / softwares written for Microsoft Windows to run on Unix-like operating system such as Linux, BSD, Solaris and Mac OS X.

In this post I want to show you how to install Wine on Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2 (it should be also applicable for Snow Leopard 10.6, Leopard 10.5, and Tiger 10.4) via MacPorts.

UPDATE: For those of you who have upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion, you will be surprised that Wine will no longer work because Apple removes the X11 from Mountain Lion. The solution is you have to install XQuartz as the substitute of X11. You can download and install the XQuartz from XQuartz project website.

ForMac

1. Download the MacPorts from its website. Select the appropriate file to meet with your Mac version. Note that you must have XCode and X11 (XQuartz in Mountain Lion) window environment installed in the system.

2. Once it’s downloaded, double-click the dmg file and follow the on-screen installation process. You have to be connected to internet while installing the MacPorts because it downloads the port files in a background process.

3. Once the MacPorts has been successfully installed, check whether the ‘port’ command is already in your PATH or not. In Mac OS X Lion, it should be already in the PATH. Otherwise run the below command to export the port into the PATH.

4. Now we are ready to install the Wine via MacPorts by issuing ‘sudo port install wine’ as follow

It will take a couple of minutes for the port script to retrieve, download, building and then install the wine and its dependency softwares. So be patient!.

ForVine

When it’s done, you should see something like below:

If there is no error like above, the Wine has been successfully installed on Mac OS X and you are ready to run Microsoft Windows programs.
