Thank you for your help.  I have another question.

When I use locate javac, I get:

turtle at turtle:~$ locate javac
/usr/lib/epiphany/2.16/extensions/libjavaconsoleextension.so
/usr/lib/epiphany/2.16/extensions/libjavaconsoleextension.la
/usr/share/vim/vim70/compiler/javac.vim
/usr/share/vim/vim70/syntax/javacc.vim
/jdk1.6.0/bin/javac
/jdk1.6.0/sample/javac
/jdk1.6.0/sample/javac/processing
/jdk1.6.0/sample/javac/processing/src
/jdk1.6.0/sample/javac/processing/src/CheckNamesProcessor.java
/jdk1.6.0/man/man1/javac.1
/jdk1.6.0/man/ja_JP.eucJP/man1/javac.1
turtle at turtle:~$

Which one (if any) is the binary file?
