First of all Post in the correct section the How-to is for tutorials and guides not for your questions.
Second, second link in google "bing command in unbuntu"
Ubuntu -- Details of package bing in dapper
Third considering the following from the man page "Many Hosts and Gateways ignore the RECORD_ROUTE option. The maximum IP header length is too small for options like RECORD_ROUTE to be completely useful. There's not much
that that can be done about this, however. Some of the final stats (average throughputs) almost never give a even marginally correct result."
: and that there are better more reliable tools available I am not sure why you would want it.
