That depends on the desktop you use.
You should have an application menu somewhere, with a submenu called development (or something like that). There should be a Code::Blocks entry. Just click on it and it starts.
YOu can also try to start a console window from inside xorg and type codeblocks at the commandline.
I checked the applications menu and there nothing .
I tried typing codeblocks in the consol and bash command not found .
I installed it in ubuntu and worrying about word-wrap on the command line would that be a problem ?

Varify you have it installed.
at the terminal shell command try typing:
$ aptitude search codeblocks
and see if it list codeblocks as installed (+i), or check within the package manager for ubuntu.
Its most likley not correctly installed or installed at all if "codeblocks" doesnt work directly from the terminal.
Would this indicate it is installed :
sudo apt-get install build-essential gdb libwxgtk2.6-0 libwxgtk2.6-dev wx2.6-headers wx2.6-doc wx-common

gdb is already the newest version.
libwxgtk2.6-0 is already the newest version.
libwxgtk2.6-dev is already the newest version.
wx2.6-headers is already the newest version.
wx2.6-headers set to manually installed.
wx2.6-doc is already the newest version.
wx-common is already the newest version.

No but that does show that many/all the depedencies are installed.
Also what version and from what source or repo are you installing from?

I think wx2.6 is a little bit outdated. I din't know if there are recent Ubuntu-versions of C::B built against this.
Where did you install C::B from and how did you do that ?
Which version of Ubuntu do you use ?
