I did a search for using Bing as a web browser and didn't find out if it was supported by zorin. I then went in to the terminal and typed apt-get bing and was given the information to install bing. I believe it was "sudo apt-get install bing". I did this and it seemed to install according to the terminal screen. When this install finished, I looked for bing under "internet", but it was not listed. What did I do wrong?

I'm not sure what you mean by a commandline app. I went to the post you gave, but I didn't understand it. I guess what you are saying is that using zorin, bing is not a web browser to be used. That is ok, there are enough browsers. I was just curious about bing. Thanks

Bing is NOT a web Browser - (a.f.a.i.k.!) - it is a 'Search Engine' that usually comes with most browsers that are 'mainstream'.

Hi,
if you want to use Bing the search engine, go here:
http://www.bing.com/What I pasted above is a network tool for terminal commandline only!.
