I just downloaded the package GMT from synaptic however I cannot use any of the commands. For example, I got the package primarily for the 'minmax' command and when I type

minmax file.txt

I get

minmax: command not found

I do get the man page for minmax, however. Have I missed something during the installation?

The gmt package seems to provide the file you want, but it's not in the standard $PATH.

To use it, you'll need to use the full path like so:

/usr/lib/gmt/bin/minmax file.txt

reference

If you want to edit your $PATH, you can put this into .profile or somewhere else:

export PATH="$PATH:/usr/lib/gmt/bin/"
