Why I must use "./eclipse" to run Eclipse?
Asked by
Xiao Chen Duan
When I want to run my Eclipse(Java IDE), I must type "./eclipse" in the terminal(after changing to the directory which contains the file named eclipse). However, when I want to run Firefox, I just type"firefox" in the terminal(after changing directory to /usr/bin). Why some times I must type "./XXXX" in the terminal to run the program which named XXXX?
Thanks a lot!
