Guest mahiles Posted August 11, 2003 Report Share Posted August 11, 2003 The application I'm stuck on is amsn. Where do I put it? At first I thought I could just put the msn directory in /usr/local. Then I thought well shouldn't the dir go in /usr/local/bin but then dirs don't go in there do they? Should a file go in /usr/local/bin and then the dir go in /usr/local/lib? Help!! Oh and yeh I realise I could put it almost anywhere I felt like and run it but then that isn't going by the filesystem standard is it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MottS Posted August 11, 2003 Report Share Posted August 11, 2003 We have a FAQ about the architecture here on this board. Here we go: http://www.mandrakeusers.org/viewtopic.php?t=6388 Putting the 'msn' dir into /usr/local is just perfect. And then make a symlink to the 'amsn' executable in /usr/bin so that you can launch it from the command line. Personnaly I put it in my $HOME directory. Well, this is Linux so you can do pretty much whatever you want with YOUR system :P HTH MOttS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
