[and a few others] if you have yumex installed, you can select, "Package View > Installed", then click on "Files". at command line, easiest is "locate [application name]". use "locate [application name] | less" is list scrolls of screen. at command line, enter; "man locate" or "info locate" "man less" or "info less" for arguments. hth. -- peace out. tc.hago, g . in a free world without fences, who needs gates. ** help microsoft stamp out piracy - give linux to a friend today. ** to mess up a linux box, you need to work at it. to mess up an ms windows box, you just need to *look* at it. ** learn linux: 'Rute User's Tutorial and Exposition' http://rute.2038bug.com/index.html 'The Linux Documentation Project' http://www.tldp.org/ 'LDP HOWTO-index' http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/index.html 'HowtoForge' http://howtoforge.com/ signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines

Sorry for the nonsense I wrote! Which is all the more embarrassing because I use these (-ql and -qf) all the time.

Windows generally installs applications in C:\Program File\ In Linux and Unix, application executables are normally installed in /usr/bin with application libraries in /usr/lib (or /usr/lib64). Additionally, some systems may be installed in /opt. Additionally, if installing an application from a tarball, that application is normally installed in /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/lib (or lib64). Normally if you use Yum or RPM, then /usr/bin is the normal place. Additionally, if you want to find out where an executable is, use the whereis(1) command as an example: [gaf@gaf ~]$ whereis firefox firefox: /usr/bin/firefox /usr/lib64/firefox /usr/share/man/man1/firefox.1.gz -- Jerry Feldman Boston Linux and Unix PGP key id: 537C5846 PGP Key fingerprint: 3D1B 8377 A3C0 A5F2 ECBB CA3B 4607 4319 537C 5846 signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
