# Quick Search for Files

`locate file*`

Locate is fast because it only accesses a database of files which it regularly updates.  You can update this with:

`sudo updatedb`

# Whereis

`whereis angband`

... shows where the angband program is, along with configuration files, and binaries.

Also `which` shows where a binary file is, and `type` shows aliases.

`which cmus`

`type cmus`
