When you installed it, did you install it with the Debian installer, or did you simply run the ns-install script included with it? If you used ns-install, then it will almost definitely not be in /usr/X11R6/bin. It would probably be in /usr/local/netscape. The same holds true for WordPerfect. It does not install into /usr/X11R6/bin either. As root, try running 'updatedb', then (as any user) use 'locate xwp' to search for the WordPerfect executable. I seem to recall having problems when I tried symlinking xwp into /usr/X11R6/bin, so you might need to add xwp's parent directory to your path. noah PGP public key available at http://lynx.dac.neu.edu/home/httpd/n/nmeyerha/mail.html or by 'finger -l [EMAIL PROTECTED]' This message was composed in a 100% Microsoft free environment. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBN0XZlIdCcpBjGWoFAQFs2gQAhCopcSDE3aazd16Xg+BIoTNntJrit1Vd rxmoOnBsIHtq2sWJ6irDKb1yUtjBU8FcZxUGmDv7+dxV0G6v8AWYvpkXLMnrr/Q6 KY2Qmzrl5RPnxYwFiNnE64paHTa1OV+mAl5bakqmxSk7zVAb+AvYhoGVl1rDuxGB 1K7LNUgwAzE= =BxeJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
