With your suggestion I did
tolu@hag:~$ cd /home/tolu/Opstk/bin/texmacs/texmacs-2.1/TeXmacs/bin
tolu@hag:~/Opstk/bin/texmacs/texmacs-2.1/TeXmacs/bin$ ls
fig2ps texmacs texmacs.bin tm_gs
tolu@hag:~/Opstk/bin/texmacs/texmacs-2.1/TeXmacs/bin$ ./texmacs &
[1] 30843
tolu@hag:~/Opstk/bin/texmacs/texmacs-2.1/TeXmacs/bin$ ./texmacs &

tolu@hag:~/Opstk/bin/texmacs/texmacs-2.1/TeXmacs/bin$ ./texmacs
