I think that an install when the GUI is not running will not make entries: it has no way to know what GUI you might use. You might need to use the graphic RPM installer. Try "apropos animail' for any help files. ... or use the graphic installer ... see what happens. :D It won't do any harm ... it might say the package has been installed, but it will let you "force" load and it will go to exactly the same places. A few more commands when looking for programmes: "which animail", or just try "animail &" from the terminal window.	Graham L (2)
