I have installed a software called GMT, then writing a script that call the new programs

./example02.sh

but I am getting

```nohighlight
./example02.sh: line 20: gmtset: command not found

```

I have done

```nohighlight
./configure

make 

make install

```

The programs have been created in the /bin directory where I did the make

Seems the applications compiled manually and installed via make install did not go to

```nohighlight
/usr/local/bin

```
