I would imagine they could go into any directory that's in the PATH (e.g. /sw/bin /usr/local/bin, ~/bin). If this is something that you plan on putting out as part of the general fink distribution, then you could put it in a subdirectory, e.g. /sw/foo/bin, and then instruct the user in the description file to modify their PATH setting to include /sw/foo/bin ; geomview is an example of a current Fink package that takes this approach.

I am uncertain where I should install them. The defualt location is /foo/bin, but I am not sure if they belong in /sw/bin. If they are there, then they will be in the path, and can be executed from everywhere. Would it be ok to put them in /sw/bin or should they be somewhere else (where)? thanks, - Koen. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
