Installing for ubuntu (using wine)

Some notes wether you are planning to make a linux version would be apreciated. I just installed succesfully using wine, the process to do so: (assumed readers were noobs)

-make sure have wine ofcourse, for Ubuntu see if you have it $sudo apt-get show wine and install if you dont: $sudo apt-get install wine

-download, unzip, use command $wine setup.exe to install, the install will go somewhere in wines fake drive_c, like defaultly .wine/drive_c/Program Files/DarwinBotsII. Note a few things: .wine is a hidden folder, use '$ls -a' to find it, it is probably in /home/user_name/.wine (fill in your user name) and the space in Program Files will annoy a linux user. Go to the Darwinbots directory with wildcards: $cd /home/user_name/.wine/drive_c/Program*/DarwinBots*

-trying to run now it asks for the following *.DLL file: MSVBVM60.DLL, get it (googling will find it quickly), put it in the Darwinbots directory (same directory as Darwin.exe)

-in the Darwinbots directory: $wine Darwin.exe hopefully works now
