Pete: When I started working with Linux (Ubuntu) I didn't have a plan on where to put the parts of Dabo. Windows pretty much directs where to put stuff and usually provides an installer. Linux - once you understand a little about where to put stuff is really not that difficult. The hard part (for Windows users) is that you have to know what the parts or modules do and have a game plan on where to put them.
Also, when I made my first post to Compuserve I asked about the Foxpro Preview window not working correctly in Windows NT. A guy named John Peterson literally blasted me for being an idiot and not combing the archives for the answer before wasting everybody's time. I didn't post for quite some time.
