Depends on how it was set up and where you got it.  Often as simple as
'make' 'make install' from the source directory.  If there's an
'INSTALL' file in the source directory it should give sufficient info.

To find packages to install try 'apt-cache search <foo>'

As a user.  What's your question?  If it's generally how to use it, 'wine
<windows binary name>'.  Not all windows programs work under wine, and
some require tinkering.
