I have a fresh install of Ubuntu with XFCE as the desktop environment. But there isn't a shortcut for Vim even though it is installed. It does work fine from from the command line by typing in "vim."
How do I find the executable (or is it a binary in Linux?) and/or place a shortcut in the menu? This PC is shared with someone who isn't big on the terminal.

'Plain' vim is a command line application -- it can only be run from a command line. You could:
Set up a shortcut to start a terminal that begins running vim immediately.
Use gvim, a non-command-line version of vim.
