Where can I review the source code?

A very n00b question: After compiling and installing software, where does the original source code reside? I'd like to study the source code of some of the ports I've installed. Thanks! Smilie

What normally happens is

1. it gets downloaded

2. it gets extracted

3. it gets patched

4. it gets configured

5. it gets compiled

6. it gets linked

7. it gets installed

normally the source is left exactly where it was on your system when it was compiled.

Try
Code:
find . -name \*.c
