i try to do some background work before dumping my troubles
on other unsuspecting folk. but lemme tellya, looking for the
precise configuration file for the precise command is a lot
more taxing than just opening a control panel and clicking some
checkboxes and menus...
so how does one find out what the distribution pathname is
when all one has to go by is the installed set of files?
(lemme rephrase--the installed fileset is all i know of, to go by.)
