Not on my Vista 64b System! Everything is in /bin, (c:\_r\bin) NOTHING is
in /usr/bin. (c:\_r\usr\bin). I thought, I had remembered that, in prior
systems almost the reverse was true, but I checked before I wrote the last
reply (and checked again, just now).
As everyone has implied, all items in /bin, are accessible through /usr/bin.
Is my system different? Why? Pilot error?
