**Hi, I have followed the steps to install GMT 6.3.0 in my Fedora 35 os following the steps mentioned in "[https://github.com/GenericMappingTools/gmt/blob/master/INSTALL.md](https://github.com/GenericMappingTools/gmt/blob/master/INSTALL.md)"**

**After successful installation of the GMT, I tried to use the GMT command “psxy” on my command prompt but I am receiving a counter message "bash: psxy: command not found…"**

but if I am getting the answers to the following queries through the portal :  
“which gmt” : “/usr/bin/gmt”  
“whereis gmt” : “gmt: /usr/bin/gmt /usr/lib64/gmt /usr/include/gmt /usr/share/gmt”  
“gmt --version”:6.3.0

This is how my .basrc file is at present. Please let me know whether any modification is needed in order to run the GMT in my Fedora

_# .bashrc_

_# Source global definitions_  
_if [-f /etc/bashrc]; then_

- . /etc/bashrc\*

_fi_  
\*export PATH \*

If you wish to run old GMT4 scripts that do no start with “gmt” then see the [migration](https://docs.generic-mapping-tools.org/latest/migrating.html) information.
