I have a habit of writing many shell scripts for everything. Some of
them are very local to me, so I put them in ${HOME}/shell and stick
that in my PATH. Some of them may be generally useful, so although I
don't have any users, I'm anal, and I put them in /usr/local/sbin/. I
don't know what the "s" stands for, maybe "system"? This location
works well enough except locally compiled system software may also put
stuff there, in which case we have both binaries and sh scripts in the
same directory, is that OK? Any better suggestions? -chris
