Hi James

BLOSUM and PAM matrices should be in the data subdir of the main blast
directory.
I would say that the best it to kept all the blast executables together with
your data dir in on directory, something like:
blast_dir
    data
In blast_dir you leave the execs, and in data the matrices, then add
blast_dir to your path, in unix usung bash you do it like this:
export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/blast_dir

I hope this helps

Diego
