Is amsn an executable? If it is, try typing 'which amsn' at a command prompt. I'm not quite sure what you're asking.

If it's already installed then there will probably be an amsn binary in your path somewhere. Try typing which amsn and it should show something like /usr/local/bin/amsn which means it's in the /usr/local/bin directory.
