Considering the fact that Linux is Free, i can accept "one of those things"
as an acceptable answer, however i rather think that in the not so distant
futcher Linux will need some sort of regulating database of program names
otherwise we will have, Huum which xxx program?, there are xx programs
with that name, handy for a beginner with our wonderfull operating system..
Thanks for the answer and your unmissable partisipation in this wonderfull
world of Linux.
