This is a bit embarrassing but I keep telling myself...it's ok, you are new to BSD....I can't find where I installed LyX.
 
I am using OpenBSD and could not install LyX on my laptop via the ports process:  I did not have enough drive space.
 
I then downloaded the binaries and used pkg_add to install all the necessary files.
 
After a few trials and tribulations I got a successful (no error messages) installation.  But now I can't get it to run.  From within X-windows I type lyx and the system says it can't find the file.  If I do man lyx the man pages come up.  If I do a pkg_info on the lyx file I get some information but nothing that tells me the absolute path of where the file is.  I get a few relative paths but I can't track anything down.
 
So, my question is, where/how would I find where I installed lyx?
