In general, we install very few scripts to the $prefix/bin location.
These are typically utility programs that are most convenient to be
able to run from any directory, such as the usrp_fft.py and
usrp_siggen.py scripts.
GNU Radio example programs are meant as as demonstrations of how to
write simple GNU Radio applications, and are categorized in the
$prefix/share/gnuradio/examples hierarchy. They sometimes don't keep
up with the latest version of GNU Radio, and must also be run either
with an explicit path or from the current directory.
