1. When I use pkg_add, where does the system put the newly installed package? I seem to recall there being a specific directory where all installed packages are kept?

2. I'm trying to install fvwm95.0.2..(can't remember exactly) I unpack the package , and then my book says that I have to add fvwm to a .xinitrc file ...does it matter where this file is located?, and how exactly should I type fvwm into the file...should I use fvwm2 as the book does? or should I type fvwm95, or should I type the entire named as it appeared on the archive?

3.   4.0 comes with a script that automaticaly installs fvwm, and creates a .xinitrc ...what is the command/program that I use to run a script?

thanks for the info

Adam
