The '''[http://www.pathname.com/fhs/%|%Filesystem Hierarchy Standard]''' is a standard that describes the organisation of files and directories on [UNIX]-like operating systems. 

It describes common location such as `/bin`, `/usr/bin`, `/usr/local/bin` etc.



** Description **

The Filesystem Hierarchy Standard specifies, for example, that executable
files such as [tclsh], [wish], and [expect], if intended for system-wide use, should be located in `/usr/bin`.
