Jenna:
That depends on the desktop you use.

You should have an application menu somewhere, with a submenu called development (or something like that). There should be a Code::Blocks entry. Just click on it and it starts.

YOu can also try to start a console window from inside xorg and type codeblocks at the commandline.

malcolm:
I checked the applications menu and there nothing .

I tried typing codeblocks in the consol and bash command not found .

I installed it in ubuntu and worrying about word-wrap on the command line would that be a problem ?

Barking_Mad:
Varify you have it installed.

at the terminal shell command try typing:

$ aptitude search codeblocks

and see if it list codeblocks as installed (+i), or check within the package manager for ubuntu.

Its most likley not correctly installed or installed at all if "codeblocks" doesnt work directly from the terminal.

malcolm:
Would this indicate it is installed :


sudo apt-get install build-essential gdb libwxgtk2.6-0 libwxgtk2.6-dev wx2.6-headers wx2.6-doc wx-common
