Introduction

Within this page and its sub-pages we will collect all cl tools, system administration utilities and applications installed on your computer. We will show you, where they are located, if you don't get any start icon. This can sometimes happen and for the most utilities for the cli there are not start icons. So you can set a link to your desktop, if you like.

Location

The location of this utilities are:

  • /usr/local/bin
  • /usr/local/sbin

Use

Directory Description
/bin/ This directory user utilities fundamental to both single-user and multi-user environments; This directory contains executable programs which are needed in single user mode and to bring the system up or repair it.
/sbin/ System programs and administration utilities fundamental to both single-user and multi-user environments; Like /bin, this directory holds commands needed to boot the system, but which are usually not executed by normal users.
/usr/bin/ This is the primary directory for executable programs. Common utilities, programming tools and applications; This is the primary directory for executable programs. Most programs executed by normal users which are not needed for booting or for repairing the system and which are not installed locally should be placed in this directory.
