    In this case looks like /usr/local.

    Strictly speaking, that tells you that ctrans isn't in your $PATH, or
    doesn't have execute permissions for you. It might still be somewhere
    on the system.

    In my local installation ncargex and ctrans are in the same directory,
    which is $NCARG_ROOT/bin/ . If your shell can find the one but not the
    other, I suspect something or other went amiss during installation.
    Possibilities that come to mind are
    - Didn't compile successfully
    - Didn't install successfully
    - Got installed, but not in $NCARG_ROOT/bin/
    - Execute permission not set or got changed

    I'd grep for ctrans in the installation log, if you happen to have kept
    one.
