Hello Nick,
I just tried installing Real Player so I could answer your question,
and man what a pain in the ass! I couldn't find the unix player on the
homepage so I had to google for it, then downloaded the rpm from what
ever obscure place it was hidden, then downloaded the updated ( RP9 )
codecs. I got the player to work, but the codecs are in a tgz file and
none of the programs (gunzip,bunzip2,etc) could unzip them! Grrr.
Anyway, your answer is a utility called whereis, it searches your $PATH
for the string you are looking for: % whereis realplay.
And that will tell you where it is, IF it is on the system.
Take my advice Nick, dump real player. Try http://www.mplayerhq.hu, it
has basic support for Real codecs, and although its a bit hard to set up
it is worth the effort.
Cheers,
Ryan
