OO.O installation (Linux)

I installed OO.O (I think), but for some reason a whereis isn't turning it up (I'm using Linux). Does anyone know what the executable name for it is? It's not openoffice, office, openoffice.org, or oo.o - I tried a whereis for all of those. Does anyone know?

check the readme file or any documentation that the website gives.

The README documentation doesn't really help... there's no install documentation included. That's normally how I find these things, but OO.O must think they're special or something, so they don't need documentation. They have to have a fancy installer. Why can't I just do a ./configure, make, make install? I think that's easy. At least I know where stuff's installed if I do that.

I looked in RH and it's oowriter (for writer), but I did a whereis and can't find it. I also did a find / -name oowriter and returned nothing. This is really ticking me off because I know it installed properly, and I can't install AbiWord (which would be the editor of my choice) because it requires Gnome.
