Two useful tools for checking this are: - "which program" which will check whether 'program' is on your current Linux search path - "locate name" which will list all absolute pathnames that contain 'name'. 'name' will also be found if its a partial name. Note that locate is fast because it looks up a database that's updated once a day. Run 'updatedb' manually if you suspect the database is out of date due to some package install or upgrade. Hint: if locate finds large numbers of hits, try "locate name | less" to see the hits page by page. Less also has good abilities to search within the text it displays. Learning how to use its search function is time well spent. HTH Martin
