Greetings
Mac OSx you can find most standard binaries in /usr/bin or /usr/sbin
some programs are launched from /usr/include/program_name.
you should not try to install tools in the root dir " / "
Create your own development directory /usr/local and place you tools in there. You may also want to adventure into the MacPorts land where they place your installed binary tools and updates in /opt/local
