I have successfully downloaded Fink and installed a number of packages, 
including the cool Gnome desktop which I like very much. Now the 
question I have is, how do I install other programs from within Gnome? I 
know I can use an xterm window and write in "fink install [program]" but 
if it installs, how do I make an alias for it, or add it to the 
Applications menu in Gnome? And finally, how do I start the program.

Along those lines, can I download binaries "outside" of fink but use it 
to install? And has anyone gotten Mozilla or Amaya to install? I keep 
running into compilation errors at the last step ("make fatal 
errors...cannot continue) each time I try to install Mozilla and Amaya.

Many questions I know, but thanks for any help.

Ari
