Your PATH and permissions look OK.

Try opening a new terminal window--sometimes you need to do that to make an application show up in the PATH.

Thanks for looking into my problem,

printenv PATH gives me:

/sw/bin:/sw/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin
[Donald-Skoogs-Computer:~] donaldsk%

and ls -l /sw gives me:

Hmm... not being able to cd into /sw/bin seems odd to me.

Run the following two commands:

printenv PATH

ls -l /sw

The first will show whether your environment is set up correctly, and the second will reveal the permissions on /sw/bin.

I downloaded gnucash (and gnome, apparently) using fink commander but when I type 'gnucash' into either the terminal or X11 window I get a 'command not found' response.

When I try to cd over to the sw/bin file in terminal I get a 'permission denied' response.

The files are in sw/bin so I know they're in there but how do I get X11 to recognize the gnucash file? Where did I go wrong?
