They are in separate sub-directories.

However, being a command line junkie, I very, very rarely click on
icons to start programs.  For gnucash I have written myself a trivial
script 'gc' to run gnucash.  I do have a (very) few programs I can
pull down from the panel at the top of my screen - Firefox, terminal
window and a calendar - that's it, everything else is command line.

I find it much easier and faster to simply type 'gc' or 'abook' or
whatever on a command line (I always have several open) than to find
and click on an icon or search through menus for a program.
