You'll probably have to type "./cribbage" in the directory containing the cribbage binary if you haven't installed them to a directory in your PATH. If you do "make install" in /usr/src/games or one of its subdirectories, they will be installed to /usr/games which you can then add to your PATH. -- Ben Smithurst | PGP: 0x99392F7D ben@scientia.demon.co.uk | key available from keyservers and | ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
