How to locate a program? [duplicate]

I installed PasswordSafe 0.93 beta by downloading its deb-package from SourceForge and have it taken care of using Ubuntu Software Center.

Now PasswordSafe asks me every time what psafe3-file to load instead of offering me a default one - as it used to be with the Windows version of it. So I thought about having a look at PasswordSafe and its (probably existing) config files and see if I can edit them appropriately. But this endeavour fails at locating the program and its related stuff.

How do I go about finding it?

you open terminal and type these

 which <program_name>

or

 whereis <program_name>

alternatively use this command

 dpkg -L 'packagename'
