".bin" is not associated with an application in GNOME. You have to make the file executable to run it. Then if it's not in your path (echo $PATH), then you have to specify the path to the file to run it. If you are in the same directory as the program file, do this: ./programname Otherwise bash will search your path to find the program. Tony - -- Anthony E.
