    Eggdrop and more...HELP!

    Firstly, I downloaded the latest version of Eggdrop from http://www.eggheads.org I already have all the necessary tools to compile it with Ubuntu and all goes well when I run ./configure but then it tells me Eggdrop needs TCL to work etc. I did apt-cache search tcl and installed 'sudo apt-get install tcl8.4 and even more other things totalling about 15MB. Still don't have TCL.

    So I decided to do sudo apt-get install eggdrop. This is fine but now I don't know where it put the eggdrop files since I need to edit the config file for Eggdrop to be able to run...if you know what I mean.

    >> Related to this is, why can't I see my hidden files in the terminal and how can I see them ?
    >> How do I make a search in the terminal ?

    The eggdrop is not under ~/home/user/.eggdrop/ (That folder doesn't exist) and neither is it elsewhere in my home folder and eggdrop can't be run as root so ??? Please help! I'm desperate.

    To see hidden files do
    Code:
    ls -a
    I don't know anything about the program, but it looks like there is a read me at
    Code:
    /usr/share/doc/eggdrop/README.gz
    It might tell you something
