Where is Sublime Text 2 installed

I was trying to make Sublime Text 2 start from the Terminal. I found a great resource but I cannot find where it is installed. I used the WebUpd8 PPA, anyone know where the PPA installs sublime.

sublime-text

  1. Best Answer

    I don't know the answer to this exact question, but to know wich files did a package install you can use this command:

    dpkg -L <package name>

    The best thing is that you can use tab completion with it so:

    dpkg -L subli<tab>

    is likely to give you the answer.

    You can also use Synaptic to find this list through a GUI.

  2. The command for starting it is most likely

    sublime-text-2

    though try

    sublime-text

    and 

    subl

    These are the programs, or links that get installed to /usr/bin/ (if my limited understanding of deb packages is anything to go by, I don't actually use the software).
